Default Re: Dominated Outs

Thank you, Aaron. I'm still using the "rule of 2" to estimate my chances of winning. That looks like a much more accurate way of counting odds. I think I'm going to start practicing permutation counts.

Someone else told me that Ed Miller calls these "discounted" or "partial" outs.

I agree that the trips are not as strong as the straight. I actually played the hand where the straight draw hit trip sevens. The villain bet 1/3 pot on the flop and checked the turn. In this particular case, I wasn't worked about a set. I was planning to let the hand go to any substantial raise, but he let me blunder into the win.
