Do you make note of your Opponents?

[papapokera85]

Well, I put colors on them that are not favorite on fish. Color norms for gamers' norms)

 

[maroca06]

I think I'm disconnected, I'm not studying the components.

 

[DjancoDan]

No but i think i should start puting colors at least.

 

[tourpro99]

Absolutely, it can only help. Great to know when opponents 3-bet light often or only 3-bet with AA, KK, QQ or AK. Or opponents who fold easily to c-bets or are especially sticky.

 

[Jim Rivas]

Do you pay attention to the people you're playing against? Like if you've played against them before do you notice that you're playing against them again or does it not make a difference to you?

Something that serves me better are the written notes that color players according to their type, because there I detail with more explanation game situations and behaviors of my rivals in different game situations such as: flop, turn and river, in addition to the bet size, etc. . Although everything is changing over time, because that's the way it is, nothing is static.

I always analyze how the players play at the table and after the fifth or sixth hand it is already possible to roughly determine who is playing aggressively, who is tight and who is just a loser and wastes bankroll ...

 

[archilazy]

not at all
only if it appeared itself in memory

 

[flail1]

Yes, note any pattern in play and then update note with each encounter. Over several different encounters with an opponent a particular pattern may show which you can use to exploit or avoid during future games.

 

[ammje]

The notes and colors for each player are very helpful, especially if you are playing several tables.
So you can know if you are playing against a good player, a fish, a crazy one or a tight one.

 

[Navin Sarabjeet]

I definitely always make notes on all mu opponents.
You just never know when you will need these

 

[kkuk]

hello.I constantly monitor my opponents.

 

[pakyut]

Maybe I will take note of my opponent but I think they still improve their game so I think there is no point of taking notes for me

 

[satriyo]

I'm not going that far. I just play hoping to get lucky and hit good hands

 

[Pokerstudy]

I am definitely going to be following Alexander Fitzgerald's method of note taking when playing live (EXPLOITIVE Play in LIVE Poker Book), as for online...I just haven't invested enough time in unregulated sites to care to take notes. I would if I wasn't working probably, and was at home all day with free time (like all my neighbors seem to be doing!)...

BTW as a side note, he is 100% right that women can see 100% past a mans bullshit. I have had a lot of female friends, and anytime I have tried any small lie bullshit, they have seen right through it. If you try and bluff, you better be winning an Oscar with your Bluff performance!

 

[TeUnit]

I take notes, color code players, look players up on sharkscope, and use NoteCaddy to automatically take notes on players. I also like to use the buddy feature(when available) to be able to find weak players and avoid strong players in the future.

 

[ParadiseFisher_]

I also use colours, 4 different in place
FISH
AGGRO LOOSE
NITTY
REG

 

[HTML]

I record but not all the players. I note his character. The main ones I note are stupid players

 

[ghitocarcia]

I always color them, and when they make very strange moves I always take note and the next I adopt new strategies against them, and when I eliminate them or take a lot of them, I get very happy, I always want revenge against them.

 

[samuri]

NOTES

Only on that day. I love eliminating them when they play so loose.

 

[denis_og79]

sometimes yes, if it's an opponent I sometimes meet in certain tournaments, it's always good to make some observation.

 

[elchonga]

If I try to score as much as I can of all the players

 

[GARCIA PABLO DANIEL]

hello

sometimes with some players I take notes ...

 

[andreypuch]

Of course, yes. Many players do not pay enough attention during the game to record useful observations of their opponents. However, later it can help in making a difficult game decision and in general will bring additional profit. That's why I write notes.

 

[franken222]

Constantly!

It's a lot of trouble, and you may never play that person again, but if you do (and I have), it can really pay off.

It takes much patience, and self application to keep it up, but it's certainly worth it.

 

[alsorory]

yes I mark them in different colors
