One thing i am very bad at is note taking.
I know it is a key part of being a poker player online. Yet i struggle to take notes enough.
Im not brillaint at spotting things i should be taking notes on:
Ie - Player A donks middle pairs. I will already be putting him on those kind of hands if he is a fish but fail to make notes on it for future reference.
- Another example being bet sizing, i dont think i have ever made a note on someones bet sizing as a tell. Obviously when in hands i can figure it out but i do not make notes on it. (ie pots the nuts)
There are probably a ton of other examples but those are a couple i can think of at the top of my head.
So my questions are
A) what should i be taking notes on? Specifics
B) What kind of things should i be writing in my notes. (is it like colour coding and coming up with your own system) Should it be specific hands, Ie Villain can raise light on paired boards, or should i write the hand history in brief and deduce it from that in the future IE Villain raises AAx flop light
C) How can i make myself take more notes and practice it in sessions (bar keep playing and i will get better)
Think there are a few more questions which im sure will come to mind if this thread develops. Hope it can spark up a debate for everyone as im sure everyone has their own ideas. :eating:
