Default Re: raising with draws - how much FE needed?

O yeah, one other thing, since stack-to-pot ratios are all the rage these days. In the original situation (8/9 draw), say that your opponent makes a pot sized bet on the flop. Then the formula simplifies to

(spr-1)/(spr+5)

where spr is the stack-to-pot ratio. Since we have all read PNL [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] and we are all keeping track of the spr, this is very easy to calculate quickly.

Cliff notes: You have a 8/9 out draw on the flop and opponent pots it to you. If you think he will fold more than (spr-1)/(spr+5) of the time, then an all in reraise is better than folding.
