I know what I'm up against on the flop.

Total pot: $12.20 | Rake: $0.60
Results:

Hero had 8, Q, 9, A (two pair, Queens and nines).
Outcome: Button won $11.60
I'm a 2:1 dog on the flop, and a 3:1 dog on the turn, which I find rather surprising. I knew I was up against a set, yet I had seven diamonds, three sevens and three tens as outs. 13 outs should be enough to call, right? The answer is no, 13 outs aren't nearly enough. The only nut draw I had was to the flush, and if I hit it, I'm not getting paid enough even if he does call with his remaining stack. The sevens were good as a gut shot but the double gut if the ten hit is not to the nuts with the JQ on the flop. It's a clear fold on the turn.

You might benefit from Rolf Slotboom's book.
It gives a view of Dutch Poker rooms and teaches the value of tightwad PLO.
And the fortune cookie aphorism of the day: One card poker in holdem leaves you busto. In PLO two card poker does. Special of the day: Chicken Lo Mein.
Does that have the crunchy noodles on top?
I'll check out the book. Thanks.
