I'm looking for a standard game to go online, and I just noticed that some players do not end up paying a lot of attention during the game, end up giving fast fold. This is helping me a lot to get my stack, any hint that they have and are discussing to post here ....

due to tournament phase weak players percent will permanently decrease. As a rule I use strategy of considering all players as strong, and only in deep process they may go down. Or away.

Depends on the stake really, but a HUD can help assist you.

Good luck, if you have questions about HUD's please feel free to PM me!

Thanks!

I use colors to mark them all, so I know with whom I'm playing against.
It's good when you play in the same tables and the players are usually the same.

Heads up display is the hud, bunch of stats you can read about player patterns, watch bet sizing in online games to find out if players have those trends , as other stated make sure to write down notes and mark people with colors

pay attention to the table

From my point of view, i like to observe the table in the first 10 minutes of the tournament. You will see a lot of all ins in the beginning. As Daniel Negreanu said, it is important to get in the money, not stay outside the money.

You will see that some players like to take their time, slow call or slow allin with AA, KK, AK. You can also take into consideration the bets that they are using. bigger bets mean sometimes that he is trying to end the hand there.

i also use shrkscope, to find some info about the players that are at my table.

after you gather all this information, you can put them in notes. write down all the information that you consider relevant about the players from your table :)

I'm playing less aggressively and with few actions at the beginning of the tournament. So when I'm with a strong hand, try to extract more chips .... I am improving my results playing like that.

It all depends on the tournament. Tournaments with low interest rates, over 60% is a maniac players, and it is difficult to collect some information. Yes, and the final table start to play aggressively, going to all-in with any pair, even in tournaments with higher buy-in.

Use the search feature on the players at your table, you will be able to find those players who multi-table therefore those players will be playing tighter.
When you do find the multi-tablers you should color code them.

]I watch the betting behavior of villains at the beginning and I take notes on them , sometimes I use the coloursystem to know who is maniac , who is fish , who is tight . I might use sharcscope to search for 5 players if I want to know more about them , as I have only 5 searches per day .

I try to make mental notes and as I write Are More Relevant to serve with warning. Example 1 :. "The player and pay too much, without correct as odd," 2) Very tight, 3) Aggressive, 4) opens with A9 no UTG and call, 5) Fear of Losing

Annotations are MANY times q NOT read the Game Time, but the act of writing help to memorize. It is also good to observe a nationality of the players, as they tend to standardization.

Every poker room has spetsilno for such cases - colored labels. You can also make an entry on the enemy when you meet it will help you. Even if you can help after the game, you spend the analysis of hands played. edit notes on the basis of the analysis.
This will give it an edge over the player.
