Note I just found:
"Beat this c***! Then sleep with his wife."

written in caps, i must have been very upset, and or horny.

[A_PLUS]

"raise his probe bet"
"UG limp wasnt AA, should have been"
"Dont pwn! limp calls with AJ"
"4xBB=KK (UG+1,25xBB)"
"hates math (resteal)"
"hates math (BB)"
"opposite man"
"payment plan"
"ATM BB"
"Floater"
"thinks big bets are bluffs"
"thinks weak bets are weak"

You should start your notes with "Once upon a time there was a poker player who...."

They are a lot nicer to read that way...

[mornelth]

"3xr EP x3 AJo, KK, underbets flop"
"opsb scary flop"
"PSB when hits, 1/2 PB when misses"
"K4s utg+1 limp early"
"3xr CO w/3 limpers, AJo"

[hello newman]

"Donk"
"Super Donk"
"Add Him to Buddylist"

This is awesome.

I used to do paste links to good porno to entertain me later in the notes.

Now, I usually just put "I've seen this guy x times before, why don't I have better notes?"

My notes are similar to those above, but I commonly leave instructions for myself for the future, like "Slow-play this idiot."

Also (and sorry for the semi-hijack), I recently sent Stars a suggestion about notetaking. I suggested that each note be "auto-populated" with some situational information so as to create a better context for the note.

For example, the stuff in brackets below would be generated by Stars each time you take a note...

[NLHE/MTT/$11/L3/9H] Rz 3x UTG, c-bet A-J-6r flop, folded to rz

This would automatically give you the game, game type, buy-in, blind level ("L3"), and how many handed the table was ("9H"). Better context, less typing.

Stars got back to me and basically said it sounds like a good idea but don't hold your breath. Am I the only one who thinks that something like this would be pretty valuable?

I asked PS about a very similar thing about a month ago. I want to know if I could create my own template, so when I opened a new note on someone it would already have some headings like:
PF
l/f
l/c
l/r
etc etc.

Similar response.


Another thing I do is note if a player is a 2+2er, even if i'm not playing them at the time but get there screenname from a post or something i open up the notes .txt file and add them in.

Most of the times my notes are "calls down" or "can laydown a big hand."

Otherwise I'll make a note on a play they made like
"limped in EP with AA/KK"
"bluffed a busted draw on river"
"raised turn with a gutshot str8 draw"

Or their habits,
"overly aggressive"
"doesn't value bet"
"Good TAG/LAG"

And sometimes "moron", "complete idiot".
