jump of a very tall building if you change your mind halfway down ,youve got the other half to change it back again.

21 outs?

2 overcards plus flush and straight draw vs pair?

or is that too obvious?

jq dd vs 22 on a 9t9dd 5

26?
3xj
3xq
9 diamonds
3 tens
2x5
3 8
3 kings

I think...

Anyway, this gives me a good opportunity for a rant. In a cash hand at DTD recently, I called £7 into a £30 pot on a flush draw with 1 card to come. I got accused of being a fish when I made it. I answered that I'd worked out that I was getting odds to call (9/46 > 7/37, even with no implied odds). Then I got accused of making that up, and there was no way I'd worked out the odds. Is it really so rare to actually consider pot odds when making this call? I got absolutely berated for saying it. I was quite surprised.

yeah sorry 25

not rare, but probably rare in some DTD Cash games lol!

rare in any live cash game that I've seen

I've got the answer to 3 but will hold back

I'm not playing out of principle.  Tom keeps putting up these really interesting puzzles but then never gives us the answer.  I'm still waiting to see if a hill fort is the highest structure you can build with 15 poker chips.  I don't like to be kept hanging goddamit.

27 outs is the answer,flop example 9d, 9h, Td, 5s,  you have  Jd, Qd, opponient has  2c 2h


if answers to previouse puzzles are required just post here which ones and i will reply

I don't make that 27 outs but then I'm a bit pissed 9xd, 3x8, 3xk, 3xj, 3xq, 3xt, 2x5=26

what am I missing

my mistake ,  9d, 9h, Td, 5d, you have  Jd, Qc, opponent has  2c 2h
27 outs

still got 26. 9xd, 3x8, 3xk, 3xj, 2xq, 3xt, 3x5

8xd - 2d is not an out. But then I've already said that, so I don't expect anyone to listen to me the second time either  ::)

Is the 2d an out?  Anyone?  Surprised no one's mentioned that already :dontask:

 ;snoopy'sguns; ;nemesis; ;frustrated;

in my defence I did point out that I was pissed. so 25 then?

Are you answering the suicide question?

lol - the pun wasn't intended, but I did notice it before hitting 'post'  considered amending it, but couldn't be arsed, then considered referencing it, but thought that would be in poor taste, so went with third option of 'hopefully no one will notice' ::)

ok as no one has got the answer i guess ill have to tell you ,it is 27 outs, there is one out that you are all missing because of the way yo see the problem , still to be kind as its xmas ill post the answer in a day or so before xmas

I've changed my mind. You're all wrong. It's 21 outs.

There are 44 unknown cards left, you can't be "behind to your opponent" if you're equal or more likely to win than he is. So 21 is the max number of outs you can have and still be behind.
