Sometimes doing the right thing can cost you. Like here, where I open a decent hand and make the "correct" play by folding when I get squeezed and the squeezer gets cold 4bet shoved upon. Except... I would've made a straight flush and stacked both of these guys.

Still, I take some solace in making the right play, even if making the wrong move would've been profitable this one time. I had already decided to fold if anybody raised me pre, I was tempted when the first raiser only made it 2.5x my bet. But there was no way I was going to call a 4bet, let alone a shove with QTs. (The guy making the tiny squeeze and then stacking off with TT is burning money in this spot.)
