    in ur accounts... confiscating ur funz
    I assume you have Axdd - you will be drawing live to the A some of the time, and sometimes you'll get paid off when you hit the A, so let's assume you have 11 outs in 46 or about 3.5:1 you get 2.2:1 on the turn call, you need to make an additional 1.3*($1.3) on the river to make your call 0EV at least. After you call the pot is about 4.2. You have $2.7 left so he needs to call your river jam when you improve around 60%
    The call should be around break even, prolly slightly +EV.

    Thanks for the replies.
    Overplaying less than nut flush hands on 4-flush boards is a common mistake. People tend to play unreasonably tight on these boards, so don't vbet thin, and try bluffing them with your air sometimes.
