the "implied odds" (not expressed odds) that you get paid if you hit your hand.

example: 5/10 NL holdem with $2000 effective stacks.

you are the button with

UTG, your typical donkish player raises to $30, the CO calls.

Do 7's play well against 2 other hands, even in position? no, obv, unless you flop a set. even flops like 662 are still small pot hands. how often will you flop a set? its 7.5:1 to flop one, and the expressed odds from the pot are not there. ($75 in the pot, 30 to call, you know the drill)

however, if UTG has aces, you have the chance of getting his stack, $2000. those are implied odds (and good ones too, I would definantly call here with 77, obv.)

however, be careful. If his stack isnt giving you over 10:1 it might not be a good call with the small pair.
