# Call or Fold: 15 Outs vs 2/3 pot, Turn

32.61% chance against a 28.57% price: 15 outs on the turn facing a two-thirds-pot bet is a call.

Your draw is priced fairly enough to call here: 32.61% to hit, 28.57% needed against a two-thirds-pot bet on the turn.

- Verdict: Call (15 outs, turn, two-thirds-pot bet)
- Chance to hit by the river: 32.61% (one card to come)
- Equity the call needs: 28.57% ($66.67 into a pot of $233.33)
- Margin over the price: +4.04 points (your chance minus the price)

## Your chance and the price

Against a two-thirds-pot bet the call needs 28.57%. With 15 outs you have 32.61%, so you clear it by 4.04 points and the call wins out.

Holding a flush draw with an open-ended straight draw gives you exactly 15 outs, out of 46 unseen cards. One card hits 32.61% of the time.

## A $100 pot, step by step

- Pot before the bet: $100
- Size of the bet: $66.67
- Your call: $66.67
- Final pot if you call: $233.33
- Gain on a hit: $166.67
- What a miss costs: $66.67
- Your chance to hit: 32.61%
- Calling is worth, on average: +$9.42
- Equity needed to break even: 28.57%
- Margin, to four decimals: +4.0373 points
- Fractional outs at the price: 13.14 outs
- Outs above the price: +1.86 outs

Expected value says the same in dollars. Win the whole pot on a hit, lose your call on a miss, add no more betting, and the call gains $9.42 on average: $54.35 in, $44.93 out, +0.141 per dollar called.

In odds, you face 2.07 : 1 against you and the pot pays 2.5 : 1.

Skipping your own call in the pot gives a price of 40.00% where 28.57% is correct, and a margin of -7.3913 points instead of +4.04 points. The starting pot gives 66.67% and a margin of -34.0580 points, which is wrong by even more.

## Reverse implied odds and your margin

If some outs turned out to be shared with a better hand, you could give up 1 out and still call. The floor is 14, at 30.43%.
