Default Your average opponent

For your most frequently played game, what would your notes say for a random unknown opponent if you were going to write them? What does your pattern finder of a brain see as your average opponent? It's good to have an idea of how your average opponent plays so you can at least have a macro poker plan when you sit down at a table of unknowns.

For me at 0.5/1 6-max:

Notes:
- Limps and cold calls from all positions.
- Donk bets top pair.
- Overplays draws.
- Can't fold.

Mine is very similar to yours except I also try to put together some sort of hand chart for all players. For example

Raise: EP(AA,KK,AKo)
MP(whatever)
LP(you get the idea)

Limps: Ep( )
MP( )
LP( )

And I also take a note if I notice a player attempts to steal blinds alot. Or fails to defend blinds

For me, the most important attribute is that they will not fold 2nd pair against a preflop raiser.

K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] if they have T9, and cold called a PFR they wont usually let it go. This has changed how aggressive I play overcards that dont hit. Often shoot the second bullet, but I save the third for times when the flop flush draw misses on the river, assuming that they might fold a pr, if they also missed a draw.

1.Steals with any two cards
2.Constantly donks flops into preflop raisers and shows down crap.
3. Goes to the river with A high
4. Goes to river with small pairs with three friggin' overcards on the board

And yet, I'm still running bad over the past month...
