Default Re: **uNL Concept of the week: Week 5, Reverse Implied Odds**

This is a great thread. Thanks! I now realize that I see these situations all the time and just didn't quite know what to call them.

Now that several people have asked the question "so what do we do about RIO?", maybe we can investigate what EMc originally asked for:

situations where the concept was applied effectively as well as examples of poor usage of the concept

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm beginning to see examples of RIO as they develop, but i'm not sure how we can apply RIO effectively/poorly other than a simple understanding of lose big / win little.

Additionally, how far does the concept of 'Make you opponent make a mistake' go here.....i.e. on the JJ overpair example if we make bets that DON'T give villian odds to draw to the flush (even though we suspect he'll call anyway) are we doing enough?

thoughts?
