I've read that this can be a misleading way to think about it though because there's another round of betting in between the turn and river. Maybe it's not as bad as what I remember reading proposed, but I generally only count my outs down to the river if I'm going AI.
Now that I think about it, am I losing EV this way? Is it worth it to count odds in terms of the next two cards if you're not planning on pushing?

Yup, that's right. Also, I tried to explain what bmxicle is talking about, but it didn't come out right... I do that as well a lot of the time, think about the number of bets and the pot size.
