Learning odds: here are some good resources.

This is a good hand simulator for calculating specific hand odds. During my day job I often run a number of simulations to see about different situations, and commit the rough numbers to memory. Like your odds if you have overcards vs. a pair, a pair vs. overcards, a pair vs. a single overcard, a flush & straight draw vs. one pair or two pair... etc. All that stuff is very useful to know.

Heh heh. Check out the strategy sections on this very site, they go over calculating pot odds and all kinds of other stuff.
Awesome, thanks!
