Implied pot odds are similar to regular pot odds in the mathematical sense, with the exception that you add another variable in the formula. This new variable is the amount of bets you expect to win from your opponents. In other words, implied pot odds include what's in the pot and what you bet right now, plus any future amounts that you think could be added following your action. 3, record 1, English, - implied%20odds

Il s'agit d'une cote du pot qui ne prend pas seulement en compte l'argent qui se trouve actuellement dans le pot, mais également l'argent supplémentaire que l'adversaire investira éventuellement dans le pot par la suite. On dit bien «éventuellement». En effet, la cote du pot implicite ne relève plus strictement des mathématiques, et présente une part de spéculation.
