I wanted to see a cheap flop, table was very tight, and I figured if the blinds showed no strength, I could win a small pot easily.

Why didn't you raise preflop

Stupid, I know. I sometimes get a little weak minded in this spot and don't want to get myself in a position where I have to call if one of the blinds goes all in.

How faulty is that thinking?
