Well the story behind this hand is that this happened to me on Sky the other night. I was in the studio and down to 12. At the time this hand came up I was being interviewed by Johnny Gould. I looked down at my hand and saw suited connectors but low ones and folded my handed and continued talking.
I was then out next hand with Q-A versus K-A.
Trouble is they showed me what would have happened if I had called with 5-6. I would have been up against
and
I would have been around 20% preflop so still happy with my decision to fold. The flop gave me a draw to a straight which I promptly hit on the turn
. I would hav etebled up and put myself in a great position. A case of what could have been.
I blamed Johnny at the time, but looking back on it I am struggling with whether I would have gone all in without the interuption or whether I would have still folded. I guess the consensus is I should have pushed.
woulda been nice to know that u folded to
and
but then to find out u woulda spiked the straight on turn rubs salt in the wound for u
