Morphology

sucka = sucker (opaque) = suck + er

The noun is historically related to 'sucker', but the meaning 'easily tricked person' is a semantic shift that is not predictable from the base components.

Etymology

Sucka as a noun comes from the older word sucker, which means 'someone who is easily fooled', and the change to -a is just a relaxed way to say it. Think of being 'sucked in' by a trick, so a sucka is a person who falls for tricks or lies.
