Pot odds<\/strong> are the odds equal the ratio of the amount of money a player must invest to the pot in order to play a particular hand. Pot odds can be converted into implied odds by using the formula: Pot Odds = $PotToPay + (MoneyInPot – MoneyBet) \/ (MoneyBet + 1)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some online poker guide will refer the amount of the bet in the pot to the amount of the bet that the player can call.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s consider the Pot Odds for the river stage of a game. As you have observed, there are many small “blinds” and large “blinds” and if you had to call a raise, the bet to you looks quite small. You are now facing a bet of $10 to the first raiser which is $10 above the Blinds. The pot now has +$50, so your odds are 10:1. These odds are actually the Implied Odds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Implied Odds = Big Blind \/ Small Blind<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

So what exactly are the implied odds? The implied odds are the odds you get if you successfully call the raise. Using the above example, the pot odds are $70: $50, or 7:1. These are the odds you get after your call, so you can multiply them by 7 to figure out what your payoff is if you successfully win the hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
