Saying they are worthless shows that you have zero skills at probability. A way to look at options is the way a good poker player tries to play when the bad beat pot is particularly high.

It depends more on how many bad hands you can afford to play on before netting a good hand. A good poker player may still fold if they've got a crappy hand because they know they're only going to enrich the pot for somebody else in this round, and by folding they stay in longer.
