What is "weak tight"

I've seen this term posted a few times. What does it mean?

It's kind of like saying a player is tight passive, but more disparaging.

A weak-tight player assumes he is beaten. This is the type of player that will laydown a big hand when a scare card comes.

The Poker Wiki has a good definition.

Needless to say, you don't want to be weak-tight.

Regards,

An example of weak-tight play:

I raise with KK and get called in two places. Ace comes on the flop, I check behind and then fold to a bet on the turn.
