I have had similar results on a smaller scale winning more with fewer tables and playing more tanles with less success when I am running bad. This is really a form of tilt.

Basically though, I don't care what you do as long as you stay the hell out of my games. I am having enough trouble already.

Agreed. Most of my notes are, wow he played this hand strange with a description of action, or berating him for sucking out and taking MY pot.

For me 3 tables is pretty much perfect and I strongly prefer 3-4 handed. Often I'll have 4 tables up and on one my stack is down quite substantially and I have no real idea what happened/any of the hands. With 3 I find my attention to players increases a lot and playing on a smaller site with the same players day in and day out I find its important to know how good/bad they are playing that day rather than just relying on my default impressions of them.

It's easy.. you raise OTB with QJo. SB cool calls. Flop is AJ2, SB CRs, you call.. turn 6, he bets, you call, river A he bets, you call. HH shows he had 89. You take the note: "SB cc btnrzr 89s, CR-B-B AJx-x-A brd with NHND"

then you know you can call this guy down a little lighter in the future because you now know he can spazz. How can that not be useful?

The useful ones for me were what do they open limp from SB,how thin do they value bet in general ,how they play HU boards with missed overcards. Stuff like that.

What if a thinner calldown situation comes up? This just alerts you to the fact that the guy is capable of CR-B-B'ing without any hand or hope to improve. That info is worth something.

How can you argue that notes are worthless? They're basically a freeroll, provided that notetaking isn't too distracting.

Making notes detailing the play of tough, tricky players who mix up their play isn't worth much, but if you're in the right games, most of your opponents will play in predictable, exploitable ways.

lastly, i am realizing a bit of animosity for anyone that i have associated with in the lhe arena. clearly i have glaring holes yet no one cared enough or paid enough attention to point them out, despite the opinions ive routinely offered on 2p2.
