I notice calling stations will call hugely large value bets like 1x pot to 3x pot with as little as top pair, but I wonder if they do recognize they should fold to huge alls in?

I'm wondering if it's possible to bluff these players in small stakes online games like 5nl-25nl?

I haven't really tried it as I've been too scared, but I wonder if you all have been able to bluff them with hugely large all ins?

Why would you wanna try to bluff calling stations? You get money from them by value betting them hard. You should also be thinly value betting them as they will call down with top pair no kicker or second pair etc.

Calling stations might fold to huge all ins in a tournament but there isn't really any all in for a cash game since they can just reload.

Don't bluff, just value bet big

Can't really generalize it to that degree.
