Re: Questions from an improving player
Theory of Poker, Chapter 7, pg 60
Summary: Reverse Implied Odds
1) You're not sure where you're at.
2) You have little chance of improving to beat a hand your opponent may already have
3) A call commits you to calling future bets all the way to the end.
4) Your opponent can back off at any time.
Say you have two black aces and the board is all hearts and straight coordinated. Someone may have already flopped a flush or straight or on a draw to one. You stand to win a little or lose a lot.
Implied odds you stand to win a lot and lose little. Hopefully.
