Default two pair versus calling station.

UTG+1 is a calling station.


Based on that how would you finish the hand?

*grunch*
Why do you 3-bet the turn if he is a calling station? especially with the button cold calling 2 bets...

as played call the cap getting 13-1 pot odds, but you might be drawing dead...

IM assuming he hit his ace and that still puts me ahead.

A calling station raising you on the turn probably means he previously hit his 3 or his 7 on the flop.

Is he agressive with his good aces pf? Is he agresive if he hits top pair with weak kicker, or mediocre kicker?

I'm ok with the turn, check-call the river. You're probably look at two pair with a paired Ace or a set.

Calling stations call. They don't raise. I'm calling down from the turn raise, c/c the river.

agreed with previous poster. calling stations call. hence the name.

he's hit a higher 2 pair or a set.

check/call the river.

the pot is too big to fold to his cap. The turn raise screams better two pair or set, but I must admit, I feel biased by his turn cap [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img].

calling station as in calls down any piece but only CAPS monsters?

I would say there's a very good chance your way behind and drawing to 2-4 outs, maybe even drawing dead.

but at 13:1 and closing the action, you gotta call.

check call the river in this monster pot.
