Thanks for the post, I'm really bad at estimating the implied odds I need at the table - what's the quickest way?

If the pot is $40 and the bet is $20 to you but you have a 1/6 shot of winning - if you call, the pot is $80, which is four times the bet to you. You therefore need to make $40 on the river on average.

this is incorrect sciolist, this is going to hurt ur bottom line if u dont do this math
making 40 on the river makes us 120 to the 20 we put in on the turn but 20 of that money is ours already so we can count that, we need to make 60 on the river, 120-20 here to make it correct or slightly more. You cannot count the money you put in on the turn again because you committed it and not villain.
