How does everyone feel about taking notes for self analysis in a cash game?
Last week I went back to regular live cash game play with the intention of adding a diary of my play for self improvement for the hands I was involved in. What I found was that very soon after a hand, I'd lose track of the the nuanced thought processes I had for the hands I was involved in. After a few hours everything was a jumbled mess and not good for self analysis at all.
I found the following blog entry on the subject. http://jonathanlittlepoker.com/how-i-take-notes-at-the-poker-table/ . His template is used for tourneys which I would modify for cash. Ideally, I would want to go digital in the end so I could just type it in on my phone. It would be faster and cleaner that way.
I think as long I was up front with the table with what I am doing and not slowing down play, that this should be alright. If you play low limits live and would be against this, I'd be very interested to know why.
Thanks
