Again, it was a financial decision. It costs a whole lot of money to be competitive in Texas because of the size of the state and the expensive advertising markets but the prize is 228 delegates. I'd imagine that advertising in DC is expensive, too, but the potential payout of delegates doesn't make it worth it. If Hillary had a huge amount of money at her disposal, I'm sure she would have put a lot of resources into these smaller states.
