Is this a chip spew if I call this?

Now some backround on the villian. I haven't been at the table long, but almost every cent I have in my stack in this session was from him and his calling station ways. He makes calls, immediately, almost as is he had checked the call any bet radio button. Not once in the 25 hands have I seen him raise. Unfortunately he has made himself invisible to the find function, or I would be making him pay for my christmas presents over the next month.

I am unable to see how this king turns me into a loser from a winner.

You said it - he's a big calling station and has not raised ever. You have to fold. The river raise is an overbet. The K can beat you if he has QT (OESD on flop), or 2 pair like KJ, K9.

Definate fold. You are ahead less than 10% here IMO.

I agree with fold. The best hand you're beating is A10. Your read suggests that Villain would never make this move with A10. Maybe you could call a minraise, but not a real raise like this.

Yeah easy fold. The flop hit a lot of hands that the king helps. I am thinking QT also. You sure didn't charge him to draw on either the flop of turn.

I bet in the neighborhood of pot on this flop since I know there are lots of hands paying me off.

I lead this turn against a calling station without blinking, what stopped you from collecting here if he will call with Jx or Ax?

lead the turn next time...alot if he's liable to call anything.

Why are you playing pot control on the turn vs an opponent who is calling you down with weaker holdings and paying for your xmas presents?

Bet more on the flop, bet the turn and push on the river.

As played it's pretty easy to see how the king would put you behind. This calling station is probably loose. Many two pairs just hit as well as a straight. Your river bet is small too so he may be making a move I suppose but given your read I guess I would fold it.

Yes, not getting more money in on the flop and the turn is horrible spew.
