Which one is better to use? The one giving it to you in % or the one in odds (45:4)?

I've been going by this one http://www.texasholdem-poker.com/odd...isplay=Display

I prefer odds, simply because it relates to pot odds so easily (for me at least).

Percentages are much better. But then again I am gifted arithmetically so it may be different for someone else.

And Spook, I love the sig.

Light years ahead of the competition.

Lets say i had in my hand and the flop came I woulda have 4:1 odds to hit my flush on the turn.

If the pot had $60 in it and i had to call $10, the pot would be laying me 6:1 odds right? So therefore it would be best to fold

Other way around. You should call that bet. When the pot is laying you 6:1 and you are 4:1 to make the hand you CALL.
