Cool. Yeah, I've been meaning to read more threads in that Learning forum. Am about to read that post now. But can someone explain how this calculation works? I believe the pot odds are 4.3:1. What numbers am I crunching to think I'm a favorite? (Just call me Mr Newbie).

As I mentioned, I guess I'm basically gun shy w/ chk-raises on the turn. Normally though (if he had 2 barreled for instance), I know I'm ahead and it would have been an instant call.
