this web site explains pot odds in a very simple way.
This is something I havent payed a lot of attention to. Hard to figure on the fly for me when I'm 4 tabling. I cant imagine you guys who do 6-8 tables being able to do this, but I'm sure some can and do.
Anyhow, I just want to see if I have this right. If the percentage of your money going into the pot is equal to or lower than the pot odds for hitting your out, then it should be +ev to make the call. If your percentage of money going into the pot is higher than your pot odds to hit your out, then you should fold.
P.S. I havent read the link yet, but going to do that now.
