Default Re: 200-400 Hand.

I think the 1.5 outs for backdoor draws originated in SSHE (pg 103-104), speaking of which I just looked that up again to make sure I was remembering it correctly and the example in the book is very similar to the hand posted in this thread. This hand is slightly weaker, especially given the competition, but I think it's interesting we're discussing a 200/400 hand that highlights the same concept that's talked about in SSHE. There should be more to discuss here than how many outs a backdoor draw is worth though. Schneids brought up some interesting points that I've never really taken the time to think too much about.
