You're off because you only have to put HALF of a bet in to complete, not a full bet. That's why I used the 2/4 exampled so 1/2 SB = $1. Your right, there are 3.5 SB in the pot, but you only need to put 1/2 a bet in to complete. So your odds are 3.5 : .5, or 7:1.
If you were calling that bet from the button, then you would be getting 3.5 : 1 odds, right? But from the SB you only have to put half as much in to complete, so your odds are doubled. Unless MY math is way off.
