As for the odds I think you are correct. You never stated you were 2/1 to win, only that you had a 2/1 chance to hit your nut hand on the turn, which is correct. 9 outs * 4 = 36%.

Whuh-what? This is totally wrong, sorry.

Your odds of hitting the flush on the turn are approximately 1 in 5. Your odds of hitting the flush on the river are also approximately 1 in 5. Your odds of hitting the flush on one of the two streets is roughly 1 in 2.5. Your pot odds are significantly better than this and the chances that you hit your draw and lose are negligible so you call.

Hopefully this makes sense, i'm tired [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

To OP: woah woah woah, you say their play was bad as any 7 or q had them beaten? The money went in on the flop and not the turn my friend.

My point was there call was looser than mine as i knew what i needed to win,risking your whole stack when theres straight and flush possibilities with a pair seemed worse than any decision of mine

Doh, I should've phrased it 9 outs * 4 = 36% to hit the flush by the river (with two cards to come) NOT the turn.

I know its already been said but dont open limp, it just isnt profitable.
And you didnt deserve abuse, no matter how you played it.
