Due to a variety of reasons, I have playing at a few different times than I normally do...This has lead to me seeing some very interesting call stations, with some having over 75%vpip all the way to 3 handed....
Position is huge with these players. In position, value betting your made or huge number of out hands and oop if they are call stations that donk bet alot....check calling top 2 pair on the flop with a dry board can extract alot of chips from some of these donks.
But overall, a standard tight aggressive style is still the best approach. This does not mean to make huge pots, but to raise when you have a good hand, cbet when you hit well and bet for value when they come along with 2nd best...
Since lots of these players either make it close or into the money since they donked out on some all in hand against another of thier own kind. They usually have a lot of chips in the late stages, which in the push fold time, can go down quite quickly to your proper pushes.
If they are not chipped up by late stages, they are usually under 5 bb or out already, so it does not matter.
Muck around all you want with them in a cash game, but in an SnG....best is still to play your premium hands like normal but maybe add a few more speculative flush/straight/pp hands by calling in a 4+ multiway pot. Then value betting when you hit big and giving up right way when you do not.
Wasting chips on 1, 2 or 3 call stations only helps the other 6 players at the table get a chip edge on you.
