Most poker books will read that there is no such thing as investment. Once you put the money into the pot it should influence you to make another call. IE. I already put in $5 to try to hit this guy-shot, I should call another $10. I disagree with them though. That is why when I calculate the odds on the flop, I'm always thinking about if I will get the right odds on the turn.. Once the money goes in, it does get factored in though. The pot will better odds because at least your money is in. -- 2004 - The year $184M couldn't buy a pennant.
