re: Poker & What would you have done with this hand
yeah I couldn't open preflop there with that hand there now maybe if it was suited and Iwas in late position then maybe I would but that hand I wouldn't not offsuited 56 no way no how you don't have straight and flush outs even though you did hit your flush there you hit a four flush board which killed your chance because like you said he was a nit and more then likely had the A of diamonds and did have it in the end when he called. Poker is all about odds and outs and maths and you have to take that into consideration when play which a lot of people don't they try to get tricky and do plays with all kinds of hands that are -EV when you should be playing only +EV hands and let the fish play the -EV hands you will find your bankroll and your tourney runs go deeper if you just play +EV hands and situations yes you will get sucked out from time to time but hey that is poker but in the long run you will be a poker winner if you stick to the +EV situations you will see it let the fish play tricky you play right.
