wimping out on the suckout

PP .5/1 game

i post the BB with 10 7s, utg limps cutoff raises, button calls ab folds, i call, utg three bets cutoff four bets, button folds,


I call... was debating for a second, and was sure that utg had AA or KK, (maybe AKs) but mostly i just wanted to play. i know bad reason but i was also getting 6-1 on my call.


flop comes Ks 7c 3c, mid pair backdoor flush. i check utg bets cutoff raises, i call utg calls. turn 10d, two pair, i check with the intention of checkraising, utg bets,cutoff raises, and i just call as does utg.


i convinced myself that cutoff could have KK or maybe K10s.


river 2s, i check utg bets cutoff calls i call, utg had AA cutoff had AKo and i wimp my way into a 20bb pot

You're going to lose lots of money by playing weak hands when you are certain that you are badly dominated.


You are going to lose even more money if you fail to bet and raise on those few occasions that outdraw those superior hands.
