How do people feel in general about calling down at SSNL? I seem to do this about 2 or 3 times every session(maybe 250 hands) and i'm just not sure its profitable. The players just don't seem to bluff enough, or my hand often isn't strong enough to call a semi bluff, but i always seem to get sucked by not believing really small raises. Is the above standard or not?

Not standard. At best you're hoping to beat a semi-bluffing flush draw/OESD (which still have a 33% chance of hitting) or a worse ten than yours. I fold the flop.
