Down to the last 12 and money doesn't really go up much until top 6. Six seated at the table and blinds are 8000/16000
First to act has
122k but folds
2nd 94k folds
I am sat with 53k in chips and dealt
 
dealer button has 83k
small blind has 95k after SB
big Blind 41k after BB

What would you do in this situation. Would you push all in or fold waiting for a better chance? i will have two more hands (assuming no-one drops out before the BB reaches me)

push, your cards matter less than your first in vigorish, and its a hand with potential (if you get lucky!)

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 trebled 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.

That's the point I stopped needing to read, definately a push for me.

Especially as you go on to say you've been dealt 56s. It does better than a whole load against the hands you're going to get calls from.
