PT has turned me into a calling station.

Only 6k hands online and I am worse than any nit at a B&M, where I have spent most of my time. I wish I could kick myself in the nuts. I am way better live. Running "good" PT stats. Trying to figure out why I turned into a calling station.

Are you using the default auto-rate rules?

If so, you need to raise more pre-flop and pick up your aggression post-flop.

You should also probably tighten up a little bit pre-flop unless you know you can outplay your table on later streets.

Ahh, Using default settings. Prolly do need to tighten up preflop. I think I am limping too much with hands like A10o, KJo, QJo, and any pocket pair, and I see your point on the raise more pre-flop and picking up aggression.

[Dustin M.]

Yeah, those offsuit broadway hands were getting me into lots of touble when I was limping a lot with them. I toss all of them (except AKo and sometimes AQo, which i'll raise and reraise with) from early and middle position and most of the time in late position when it's been raised. If it's folded to me in late position, or there are only one or two limpers, I'll sometimes raise and sometimes limp depending on the table dynamics.

Has PT turned you into a calling station, or just shown you that you are one?

As for tight/loose, you can often play looser in low stakes B&M games since the other players are also loose. So if you don't adapt your game...
