Yeah and if I get lazy or distracted and don’t problems arise like if I’m not paying full attention get bored and only look when it’s my turn you have to look out for the ones that bluff way too much or the idiots that try to win by going all in with a rubbish hand it’s hard enough playing online poker cos u can’t look for a tell so you need to watch out and gather as much as you can from their playing style

Only if he does something very unusual, like going allin preflop with a trash hand.

I take notes, from time to time, but not as often as I really need to. In fact, notes are very valuable information, and sometimes, in appropriate situations, such information can be crucial.

I have notes on many player I have played against. The problem with notes is they are not always going to be accurate. I can put a not today on a players playing style and when I next play them they could play very much different. This usually happens when I have not played them recently.

It's very useful to take as many notes as you can if you not an occasional player

I know I should, but at the same time, not been good at poker or having study the game that much, I don't think I would know what to take notes about.

Like what's good to make notes on and how to use those in the future.

Once I complete some deeper Poker Course and know more about it, maybe I will start taking notes and see how to apply them in the future.

At the same time, the volume I play probably doesn't justify it.

Not usually. But I think I should start taking notes. 888 has easy access to mark players as donkeys though. :D

Never see the same ones enough to make it worth while... I do recognize some... but they are seldom at the same table.

If we do play at the same table... I generally know the player type...

I play on a wsop which is regulated. No tracking software allowed so it is all taking notes and labeling players.

I remember Greg Reymar getting out his notebook at the WSOP in a hand with Mike the mouth. If it is good enough for the World Champ then enough said.

Do you put notes on your opponents?
And I always put it, even if I lose and leave the game in a next tournament I already have enough information about this opponent, this has helped me a lot when I meet them at the tables again.
a while ago I started to make notes about my opponents to facilitate my action in the game. I noticed an improvement in my victories over some opponents.

ywhat a small tournament then I do, if it's a lot of thousandth tournament, then there is no sense, since tables often change.

Be sure to take notes on the players. It is difficult to take detailed notes when playing several tables. Sometimes when you see a different style of play for a player with a note, you have to change the mark to make an addition.
