Ok..
So lets expand our mind a little bit. Pot odds really shine when talking about limit, but man they are a sad sorry state of affairs when we look at them here at no limit.
But there's a few really awesome things we can do to increase our pot odds.
Is there any way we can increase our happyness factor when looking at this? Wouldn't it be awesome if our opponent thought. "Aww heck, I'll let this guy see the river for free." Is there anything we can do besides buying him a beer to encourage him to do this for us?
Also, lets say you did hit your hand. This isn't a videogame; once you've achieved your objective the level isn't over. It's bonus time. How can we go about earning that bonus?
What if your opponent is like my Dad, and won't call a really big bet.. even if he has the nuts. True story, he folded the nut straight on a grossly rainbow and pretty uncoordinated flop like 965r while he held 87. Guy bet 3x the pot and he hit fold before I could choke out the words "aack you have the nuts". Is there anything we could do to help encourage this type of boneheaded play?
--note. This last example is not to say I'm trying to induce misclicks... at all. Very few people are going to make such a huge mistake. Turns out though, people are prone to making small mistakes quite often. How can we induce a small mistake like the example above?
