Default Re: Review: Winning in Tough Hold \'em Games by Stox/Zobags

ok, well... i just came across the blind defense section and i think i noticed a mistake. the chapter deals with 3 betting from the small blind in a steal situation.

(page 144)
introduction:
"if you 3 bet a button raiser and the small blind folds and the initial raiser caps, then...etc"
then he goes on about postflop play and says:
"check and if he bets out you get 9:1"

why 9? 4 bets from the raiser, 4 bets from hero + 1 dead from the BB who folded, +1 bet from the button on the flop makes 10, so it should be 10:1 - or where's my mistake?

the book is great by the way. always loved stoxtraders play very much, the book really fulfilled my expectations!
