uNL odds quiz

[ajmargarine]

A quiz about odds. Examine the hands and determine whether Hero has odds to make the call. The first question is an implied odds PF hand. For the other 4, you'll have to put villain(s) on a range, calculate the size of the pot and bets and determine whether you have odds to make the call.

NOTE: These hands are somewhat made up, so no criticism of how Hero got to the point of decision is needed.
