another way of doing the same calculation is this way ( also posted under Easy Odds Calculation under this topic)
After the flop: multiply number of outs by 4 ( in Tex's example, OE straight draw, you would have 8 outs.....8 x 4 = 32)
After the turn: Multiply number of outs by 2 ( same example. 8 outs. 8 x 2 = 16%)
Same calc at Tex's just a little different way to do it.
