Cause playing against calling stations is exciting?

LOL. At least calling stations usually make their crappy decisions quickly. You can almost imagine the players at Absolute going, "um, well, these cards are soooted...but there are no face cards...hmm...a 10 is good, right?...okay, I guess I'll fold." And God forbid you raise, because that takes extra time to decide whether to fold.

And let's not forget that slow, weak-tight tables make bonus clearing excruciatingly slow. It has taken over 1000 hands at 1/2 to clear $50.

I was about to swallow my tongue with boredom yesterday, so I played at Stars for a while just to see if I was imagining it, and it was like night and day. People were actually deciding to fold within 10 seconds, and almost never folding all the way around to the big blind.

A caller or two can actually come in handy sometimes, too. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
