SB would be getting 8:1. 5 outs gives him 8.2:1, so he would be calling incorrectly.

If we are going to get this exact on splitting hairs... lets nail down the odds killa! He is getting 8.4:1 on the flop! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

My real point is...
I generally think of 5 outs as 8:1(therefore SB's best case scenario would be break-even) because we are talking about a pretty inexact science here when it comes to out counting. I could be wrong though!

Sorry, didn't mean to be picky about the odds. I just wanted to check myself that he would be making a mistake in calling.

I think you make a good point about how we want others to make a mistake and I thought that if this SB was going to make the mistake of calling one, he would also call two.
