I try to take notes regularly. This is so convenient for me.

Well I would really love to take notes but I’m just not playing those serious tournaments lately just some freerolls.. and I don’t think that there is a point on taking notes on those ones .. maybe I am wrong

Hi.
I use my player notes quite often. In each such note, I enter data about the player, about his actions, style of play, etc. in order to understand what can be expected from him. Notes are a very valuable source of information and often help to make the right decision.
Good luck.

I used to take notes, but now I just use colored markers. I mark players from my country in blue, it's always nice to play at the table when there is an opponent from my home country, I mark good and cautious players in purple, I mark aggressive players in red.

Yes, I take notes and I think it's a very useful habit. At least I have already seen from personal experience that notes can be very useful. I make notes in a random way, for example, I often notice players who play with junk, or just play aggressively, in addition, I notice players who often bluff, or those who are patient and usually play with strong cards.

Yes but it’s fairly generic bc I once started taking detailed notes until I lost it all when things crashed. My note taking is from cc freerolls and league

I doubt how useful notes could be in online poker. The best notes are your memory!

Yes, I take notes and usually notice donkeys. My notes have helped me several times and I have personally seen the benefits of having them.

I mark the weak, the tight (often the excellent), and the bully (and lay in wait for him).

I never have taken notes. I try to just pay attention to how people at my table are playing currently. They can change depending on the day

Hi. I don't take notes, but I think it would be helpful. Previously, when I often played online poker, I used Hold'em Manager and I had enough statistics on the players that he collected for me. I think if you use software such as Hold'em Manager or Poker Tracker, then there is no need to take notes. At PokerStars, you can mark players with different colors in order to know which of them plays aggressively, who plays passively and who plays loose.

As I usually play at several tables, it is very difficult to take notes

I do not play very often and for long sessions, to make it worth to take notes. Also, I like to focus on the game as it develops live and not take decisions based on what happened in the past. But, it is a good practice that can help players.

That's what I do, because it helps when making decisions in one or another situation. For example: one time I knew a player was making strange bets and when I saw the note I chipped him and won a big pot

Yes, of course, I take notes and frame them with different colors, it helps me remember what type of player I have at the table.

I rarely use notes, although I guess notes are a useful thing. I think I will start using this feature more in the near future, especially when I become a member of the platinum freerolls club :)
