Common Poker Draws & Outs

🎯 Flush Draw

9 outs - 4 cards to a flush (need 1 more of the suit)

Example: A♥ K♥ with Q♥ J♥ 7♠ on flop → Flop to river: ~35% to hit

📈 Open-Ended Straight Draw

8 outs - 4 cards in a row (need 1 on either end)

Example: 9-8 with 7-6-2 on flop → Flop to river: ~32% to hit

🎲 Gutshot Straight Draw

4 outs - Need 1 specific card to complete straight

Example: 9-8 with 7-5-2 on flop (need 6) → Flop to river: ~17% to hit

🔥 Flush + Straight (Combo Draw)

15 outs - Flush draw + open-ended straight draw

Example: J♥ T♥ with 9♥ 8♥ 2♣ → Flop to river: ~54% to hit

👑 Overcards

6 outs - Two cards higher than board (pair wins)

Example: A-K vs 9-7-4 flop → Flop to river: ~24% to hit

Understanding Pot Odds

Pot Odds Formula

Pot Odds = Amount to Call / (Pot Size + Amount to Call)

Example: Pot is $100, opponent bets $20

Pot Odds = $20 / ($100 + $20) = $20 / $120 = 16.67%

You need 16.67% equity to break even on this call

Should You Call?

  • If your win probability > pot odds %, you should CALL (profitable long-term)
  • If your win probability < pot odds %, you should FOLD (losing play long-term)
  • The bigger the difference, the better (or worse) the call

The Rule of 2 and 4

A quick mental math shortcut for calculating poker odds at the table:

  • From Flop to River: Multiply outs × 4 (gives approximate % to hit by river)
  • From Turn to River: Multiply outs × 2 (gives approximate % to hit on river)

Example: 9 outs × 4 = 36% (Actual: 35%, close enough!)

Why it works: Each card represents ~2% of the remaining deck (47 cards on turn, 46 on river). The rule simplifies complex math for quick decisions.
