Default Re: What do you guys \"read\"?

I check hand histories very often to see what players mucked. I'm looking to see who I can value bet and how low I can go.

I really don't care too much about pf play reads. Loose players are relatively tough to put on a hand until the flop anyways so I wait and see what the texture of the flop and and think about their probable range given their tightness and aggression pf. Tracking actual hands is a bit much because you don't get that many hands to SD to be terribly accurate before they leave.

I usually try to figure out what the source of the aggression was. I'm looking for things out of the ordinary that might cost me a pot by making e fold. Do they bet draws? How far do they go with these bets? Do they bet middle or bottom pair on the flop. Do they take shots at the pfr when the flop comes all low cards? When they wake up on the turn did they do it with a made hand or a hand the added outs like a flush draw? Do they bluff? Do they bluff raise? Do they bluff C/R? These are all things I'm most wary of because I am capable of folding in many situations but reads will prevent me from folding incorrectly.
