Default Question re: Outs

My hand is 3 spade-3 diamond. Flop is 3 heart-T club-9 diamond.
How does this count up to 10 outs (toward a full house or better)? I only count 7 outs.
Apologize for such a simple question-Thanks for any help. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

You can also make a full house with, for example, king on turn then a king on river(or any other 2 cards of same rank). Not really sure how this adds to 3 more outs - but assuming you are referencing something - must have to do with number of outs and discounting outs, etc. I am sure someone with more knowledge can explain further. For now though, you can see how there are more than 7 outs.

It's 7 outs for the turn, but if you don't get the fullhouse or 4 of a kind on the turn, you will then have 10 outs for the river.

You have 33, and the flop is 3T9, and, as you note, you have 7 outs (one 3, three Ts, three 9s,).

If the turn is not a 3, T, or 9, you will have 3 more outs (the 3 cards that pair that card).

So, if the turn is a King, you can make a full house or quads on the river with:

1 three
3 tens
3 nines
3 kings
-------
10 outs

You have 7 outs on the turn. If you miss on the turn, you pick up an additional 3 outs (10 on the river)

although if you need outs on that flop, you're probably drawing to one out for the rest of the hand.

Thanks to all for answer to outs question. I am finding that counting outs properly is very important in poker - how can you figure odds without knowing how many outs you have? No way......
