Why Folding Marginal Hands is a Good Thing

Even though I had the button and like to gamble sometimes with suited semi-connectors sometimes, it's not a good long term tactic and more importantly, can keep you out of very dangerous situations.

Had I stayed in the hand, I'm not sure if I could have gotten away from it. A straight is pretty good even with two opponents and no flush or boat possibilities. Even worse, a three way tie would lose money for all three players because of the rake.
