Game: Six-max NLHE | Format: Cash | Blinds/Antes: 1/2 no ante | Effective Stacks: 100 bb | Hero Position: BB | Pot Size: 12 bb Hero defends with Q♥ J♥ on A♥ 7♥ 2♣. Villain bets 4 bb. Hero is not all-in. Why is the Rule of 2 preferred over the Rule of 4 here?
- The Rule of 4 only applies to straight draws
- The Rule of 4 assumes Hero sees two cards for free
- The Rule of 4 is mathematically impossible on the flop
- The Rule of 2 accounts for implied odds
