Yeah, by the turn I don't see what reasonable hand you could be ahead of. Good fold.

A better fold would have been preflop out of position vs a tight passive opponent's raise with only one other player in there.

Folding preflop is very bad IMO.

I don't think this is a fold from the BB even if he's heads up against the button raise.

There was a post awhile back by Peter_Rus with some poker tracker stats suggesting you should call a raise with almost any 2 suited out of the big blind so long as there is one other party in the pot. The pot is all the sweeter since the SB folded, the small blind is big enough to make a difference.
There is some debate weather hands like 72S, 47S etc are profitable, because the way the study was done.

thanks for the responses guys
