Hello @Berandir
Thank you brother for your words.
It's true, it helps me a lot to take notes.

Thanks for the post, it is valuable!
Personally, I occasionally take notes on some players if I note something drastic. I don't see those players again though, as the players on the platform are tens and hundreds of thousands so it is really hard to meet some of those again. I play on micro stakes and freerolls mainly, so the field is really wide. I suppose if you play higher stakes there are not so many players so you eventually meet the same guys and maybe it makes more sense to take notes on those key players.

THANK YOU BROTHER @ednaroza for your words.
It is true what you say. In such a case you could do a labeling in colors according to game situations.
Some player very bluff in a flush. One recreational in another. A firm player in another and thus adding a specific note of a particular move to take into account.
The idea is to see ways to play so as not to fall into a well before any binguero hahahah
My regards, brother

Notes can and should help us make a good, correct decision. If you devote enough time to creating notes, do it regularly and diligently, then the time will come and your notes will simply bring you money.

Hi, I think is good recommendations but in online there are a lot of players and is hard to have notes from players or maybe you use some tools to do that?.

 

[JeffSBrito]

For me, taking player notes is an essential part of my poker game. By recording information about opponents, I am able to create a valuable personal database that allows me to better understand their playing styles, betting patterns, and trends.

By closely watching the players' behavior, I record details such as their betting trends, confronting hands, bluffing frequency, emotional reactions, and any other relevant information. This gives me a strategic advantage over time, as I can adjust my approach according to the profiles of the players at the table.

Hi bro @Gh0stL
No, I don't really have any tools, I just take notes.
And now I started tagging by level. 7 different colors level, recreational, passive, bluff, good level, high level and to be careful red level.
I take notes only of very well created plays. Or very poorly made openings or things like that, which already make me understand how that guy plays.
My regards, brother

Hello brother @JeffSBrito
That's exactly the idea
See a pattern of play of the opponent.
Yesterday one of our friends told me that it is difficult because over time they improve their game and it is true.
But in general the pattern of play, unless they get too much better studying poker or things like that, is generally always the same.
The passive, if he reraises you late, have no doubts that they have AA KK QQ from there it doesn't come out, with AKs they callimp.
There are many who go strong with AKs, but by not clicking the A or K in showdown they end up going all-in because they lose the pot, with 22 I have paid them firmly and I have beaten them several times.
And plays like this, everyone in general has a pattern of play.
When you play higher levels there it is already different. More or less all the players have an interesting game pattern, there you already have to try to find the recreational and passive ones, these are very easy to find, they clean up every hand they find. And if they go allin to you they will surely beat you, if it is not with the nuts they never go allin.
Greetings brother, I congratulate you for taking data from the players.
A hug

The benefit of taking notes!!!

Dedicated to mys brothers @jordanbillie y @Luvepoker

I have been reading all the comments from the experienced Cardschat people for a long time.

One day in a comment my brother @Luvepoker was referring very precisely to taking all kinds of notes about the players he interacts with online.

Before it only tagged with a color players who possibly played well or poorly, or who could be recreational, etc.

But now I take all kinds of notes, plays from position, limps, openraises, reraises, allins, hand data.

Just yesterday in a fairly large hand at a cash table, those notes helped me not to lose my hand against a German player.

At least when they ask me the question about the odds/outs calculator, I try to say that they should not calculate these by calculator unless they play a multiple number of tables.

If they do it in tables of 2 maximum as I play, I prefer that they calculate it mentally at that moment. Because this will also serve you not only as a brain exercise, but also in case you ever have to play live, there is no odds/outs calculator, there is only you and your brain.

But in the notes it is different, because it is impossible to remember with which players you play daily, against whom you face. And believe it or not, a single note from a player can help you improve or get out of an MTT, or your bankroll doubles or breaks at a cash game.

Of course, as I always say, the luck factor is always inside, but also the factor of how your rival plays is also inside.

It is not the same if you face a recreational player or a Pro.

I hope this post is useful to you.

Greetings to all.

Carlos

Thank you for the kind words Brother. So glad I have been able to help.

Not at all @Luvepoker bro.
On the contrary, thanks to you, thanks to that comment you made, you solved many problems that I had hahaha
A big hug
Greetings to the family and blessings
I love you very much

yes brother you're right notes make a big role in poker if there is such a feature why not use it of course you need to use it because it only helps but I use it very rarely I just tag players and that's it and I'm very lazy to write it down but this is a cool feature don't ignore it

Hello my dear brother @Gallarado777 how are you for so long???
What you say about the labels is also good.
Now in order not to fill a player's box with notes, I have taken several labels according to the level of play that I think they have, and I make specific notes, openings, limps, etc. Notes that can give me the profile of the player.
You are with a red label, which is the best player hahahaha
A big hug brother
I love you very much

 

[RustyRed83]

Hi bro @RustyRed83
Labeling with different colors is also very good.
There are many players who play very well, and if you tag them with a strong color it's not bad at all.
Greetings

The only problem I have with color labelling. I forget which color means what. Haha.

Very nice joke bro

Poker is a game of missing information, but when you have clues or an idea of how your opponent is playing it can help you make the best decision and of course it will help increase your return on investment on the long turn.

For example, you noticed a player who bets the pot value as a bluff when he misses a straight or flush draw. This reaction can help you call your top pair in a similar situation.

Hi brother @Atararo14
As it is as you say.
For example, the $3 million hand that Tom Dwan won in the live casino was a total information hand.
Many times online similar things happen. Not every open raise means that you will have Aces or Kings, there are players who already make it a habit to openraise in any position with any suited hand or draws, when they do it with strong hands you already realize why they change the bet.
I don't know thousands of things, but the information you collect from each one is fundamental
My regards, brother

Taking notes gives you a slight advantage to increase your odds of winning just a tad bit more. You can’t control variance and the other player making adjustments or mixing up play

 

[drinker]

Notes can sometimes help make a difficult but correct decision. Notes are not a panacea, but with notes is definitely better than without

Hello @goaldriversv
Hello @drinker
If it really is an advantage, of course the notes will not give you absolute certainty of the opponent.
But they give you a certain profile of how he moves in the different positions, which is what is important.

Hi @Dasha_21

It is true, on many occasions they help you make good decisions.

In MTTs you often find many players who don't change their style of play.

So that way you already know how you can play against them.
