Average Ranges of a Calling Station in NL10
The calling station is different from all other player types due to his very wide pre-flop calling range, his small open raise range and his wide limp range. On average, he plays between 30% and 100% of all hands.
There are large differences in the ranges of different players of the calling station type. Sometimes they raise hands at random such as Q6o or 96s instead of their best hands like AA, KK. Pay attention to these things in order to estimate their hands even better.
