Texas holdem poker. Did I make the right choice?

6 player table blinds $1/$2 im in the big blind and hold K5 offsuit.

I would say yes, you hit high pair but with a low kicker. If someone riases you, there is about 10% chance they are bluffing, this could increase or decrease if you know the player. If they raised I would at least think they had a higher kicker than yours. He could also be slow playing aces and when you bet, he knew you had a king so he raised hoping you would call.
overall there are too many hands that can beat you here and I think you made the right move.

Folding Poker Tables - 3 Reasons You Want One

Folding poker tables add an element of fun to your home poker games that just isn't there when you play on your kitchen table. Like being in a casino, there is an exciting Vegas feel when you splash the pot on the colorful poker felt and out bluff your competition across the table.

So if your poker games with your friends and family are getting a little stale, look at these wonderful benefits when you have your own poker table.

Folding poker tables make the game more realistic. As stated before, instead of throwing your old army blanket over the dining room table and it bunching up when you try to rake in the chips, a poker table has a felt playing area. Under the felt is a pad that absorbs the sound when your chips hit the table which sounds more authentic then that wooden echo and the chips bouncing all over the place, just like real casino tables.

Folding poker tables have features for comfort and convenience. After long hours with your arms creased on the edge of a hard wooden table, you start to get pretty uncomfortable. Poker tables have cushioned armrests that surround the entire perimeter of the table to rest your arms on. They also have built in beverage holders for every player so you have a place to keep that beer from spilling all over the table.

Folding poker tables can be stored easily. Unlike a billiards table, when your poker game is over these can be folded up and put away, ready for your next game. And setup is just as easy. You are ready to play in a few moments. Poker tables are heavy, but they are still portable. You could fold it up and take it to a friends house if your game rotates.

Folding poker tables come in two common shapes, oval for larger games and octagon for smaller more personal games. For those large tournament games with more than 7 or 8 people, the oval tables can be as long as 7 or 8 feet long and have up to 10 player positions. The octagons are 4 feet across and are for up to 8 players where everyone sits facing each other, and all players can reach the pot.

If you have been putting off getting a folding poker table, I hope this has helped encourage you with the reasons why you really do want one. My games have never been as much fun as when I started using a poker table for my home games.
