Pot Odds Question

[AH-TitanFan]

Hi everybody,

Here is my first post! How do you calculate pot-odds for a re-raise?

For example . . . there are 10 small bets pre-flop. After the flop, someone raises (now 11 small bets). To call you would need better than 11:1 pot odds. Which translates to 4 (or more) outs to win. How would you calculate the number of outs needed to raise? Would you add your "raise bets" into the total pot, for purposes of calculating pot odds? (i.e. 13:2 ~ 6.5:1 [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img])

P.S. Before we get too complicated with the implied odds that the original raiser will call, the action on 4th and 5th street . . . etc. I just want to make sure I understand the basic math behind the decision to raise/call.
