Note Taking

#1 18-11-2007, 3:00 PM

Until quite recently, I only used the poker room notes facility very infrequently. However, as the facility is there it seems stupid not to make use of it. So, over the past 2 or 3 weeks I’ve started to use it more often. At present, I mainly use it to build a better idea of villains likely preflop raising range. For example, one player in particular I have noted seems to raise from any position with a suited ace, plus the standard premium hands. Of course, it’s possible to put a player on a likely range based just on the frequency of their PFR, but having the notes there I find it quite useful when deciding how to act on their raises.

I would not want to make copious amounts of notes as I’m concerned that could be counter productive. However, I would be interested to hear if others use the note taking facility and what they use it for.

Regards

Boltneck.

You might want to check out this thread Player notes

On a personal note, I've found that making decisions based solely on your notes is a bad idea, but they are a great help in making marginal decisions.

Many thanks for the link - the information in it was very helpful, and exactly what I was looking for.

Good insights. I haven't taken advantage of note taking up until now. It is a great resource and could potentially make all the difference in a game.

I was searching for a way to up my note taking also. The categories in that thread, I think were just what I was looking for. Thanks for bringing that back up.
