Calling Station Players

Hello,

I’m sorry to say this but I think there’s something wrong with what you’ve mentioned last time about the calling station players. Yes, most likely calling stations are bad players but I think they can also be lucky at times and then win. But of course they also have to do their thing, play correctly and muck proper bad hands.

My intention is only to share my idea about calling station players. I hope you’re not offended or what. I know you make sound, helpful advices and I salute you for that.

More power to you.

Many thanks,
Spike
Spike,

In the case of most calling stations being bad players, many calling station do not fold their marginal and bad hands and take a lottery approach. They stay in and hope they win. There are some players that are calling stations that mostly play solid hands, but the majority are those that are just outright bad players.
