Calling Stations are hilarious...
Just overall poor playing.....
Playing on TruePoker (which I find has some of the biggest calling stations known to mankind,....I feel like Im playing play money half the time) I dont have the HH, but we're in a tourny with 4 players left, I have KJs and make a preflop raise from the button, one caller from the BB. Flops Ace 9 7 rainbow. BB checks and I make a continuation bet, BB calls. Ok he may have an ace...better slow down...but I figure Ill try one more, maybe his kicker is weak or he's just trying to see if I was stealing.... Turn is a Queen, BB checks, I bluff once more (I guess I had a 10 for an out) BB calls.. River is a 3, BB checks again.....ok Im obviously beat here lemme keep my loses at a minimum. Check back.....BB shows 10,3, I muck.
(Im not gunna even begin to describe the problems calling a raise with 10,3 off, even at a 4 person table) On the flop: If you think Im bluffing then fine --- BUT RAISE ME THEN...or if you are simply calling in attempt to raise me later or bet out later fine....BUT DO THAT. Dont check call a ten high with no draw twice! then check the river again!
