As a side note SB played that pretty bad lol.

At best you might hit this hand 2 or 3 times a year depending on how many hands you play.

As zach intimated, a 10-6 is grim, as you'd need 3 exact cards. It all depends on the 2 cards you have. An AK or A3 is even grimmer, cuz you need 3 exact cards. But let's say you had a 69. You need the 78 and the last card could go up or down (5 or 10), thus increasing your odds. If you have mid suited connectors like 67m your odds are a lot better. Gappers and such are key, that's why you see so many different results in Steve's link.
