Do you use notes on players or rely on memory?

When playing online, I’ve seen some players take detailed notes on opponents, while others just rely on general memory and tendencies.

I try to take notes, but I don’t always stay consistent with it.

Do you actively use notes, and do you think they give a big advantage over time?

Yes, I take notes whenever I spot something unusual. A good note can save a lot of guesswork later, and over time those small pieces of information can add up to a significant edge

I'm actually not a big fan of taking detailed notes. The main reason is that most poker players don't stick to one style forever. Good players adjust their strategy depending on the table, stack sizes, tournament stage, and especially their opponents. A note that was accurate a month ago might be completely wrong today. I prefer paying attention to current tendencies and table dynamics rather than relying too much on old notes.

I have started to make notes of players a lot recently as it's not easy remembering all names

That's right; player notes are very important because you can't memorize every player, so the best option is to take notes with the appropriate tags.
