I'd seen this occasionally as a player, but have seen it a LOT more often recently as a dealer, especially with newer players; Counting outs that don't exist:
If, after the flop, you believe that pairing your overcard, OR hitting your nut flush draw OR hitting your gutshot straight draw will win the hand, then you do not have sixteen outs. (Three to your over, nine to your flush and four to your gutshot.)
You have three to your over.
You have four to your gutshot.
You only have SEVEN to your flush.
This is because one of the nine suited cards has already been counted in your overs, and another has been counted for the straight draw.
This may not seem like a lot, but it can make a big difference if the pot and/or implied odds are not that great to begin with!
