Default AKo in a small pot and I\'m not happy with my hand...

... so I get out.

Coldcalling villain is a little loose preflop and his postflop play seems somewhat weak. For example, he has raised preflop, got called by BB (me) checked behind on a ragged flop HU instead of c-betting, then he folded to a turn bet.

Discounting my outs from 10 to about 8 because of some reverse domination fears and the RIO payoff when he picks up two pair or a flush, I figured myself to be short on odds and check-folded. Is it possible that I fold the best hand here? I suppose it is, but I don't know if it's often enough against a guy unwilling to c-bet a ragged flop and fold the turn UI in a heads up pot against BB.
