That's because you suck in air instead. From an energy standpoint, energy gets wasted by the incoming air. But if the holes are rather small, and you suck strongly, you might still manage to suck in some liquid.

Actually this is rather easy to explain, when you suck at a straw, you create a vacuum in your mouth. This makes the nearest molecules flow there. Like high and low pressure zones that create wind flows. But then with water via a straw. When there are holes in your straw, the first thing that is getting sucked in, is the air around you and the straw. Basically, you are wasting energy. The best thing to do is just get a new straw and enjoy your drink!
