Abdul`s sucking out essay.

[Zim]

Hey,

Been trying to work on my post flop play and came across this article by Abdul Jalib:

http://www.posev.com/poker/holdem/st...uts-abdul.html

Now, I play NL ... but I figure it could be helpful.

One question I have, however, is the first section titled:

"Betting or raising for immediate profit."

In it, he writes that with one caller, you will win more than your fair share of the time if you have more than ...

23 outs.

Yet with 8 callers, you only need more than 5 1/8 outs.

This seems counter-intuitive. But then again, my intuition may well be lacking.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Best,
Zim
