[Long] Giving chips to a calling station
Never do that... But that's just what I did in a SNG a few nights ago... And this was the most solid as a rock calling station I've seen in years. (Not a lot of online players fit this profile now, since everyone seems to be getting the go-aggressive message). This dude would NEVER raise, even when he was on the button and no one else had called and even when he was the small blind and no one else had called. I didn't ask, "Boxers or briefs?" because I knew the answer was tighty whities.
On the other hand, if you do enjoy "watching play" via a poker blog, check out At the poker table, where you can "peek over reporter Germain Lussier’s shoulder as he plays Texas Hold ‘Em with his poker pals." Germain is away right now. (Full Metal Jacket tickets beat even a full house, I guess.)

Time to go deal some dinner, and contemplate the folks whose addictions are doubled. Poker plus blogging—when is there time for life?
