Being able to remember the cards that have shown is essential for true expert play.

Now, I realize that remembering every card isnt required for the low limits. However, I am curious of the methods that high stakes players use because I aspire to someday play there.

Specifically, do they always keep track of rank and suit of dead cards, or does it depend on their starting cards?

I have trouble keeping track of both, I can do one or the other. One thing I thought of doing was getting a deck of cards and start out remembering 5 cards that I show to myself for a split second, then 10 cards and so on. If anybody would like to share any other tricks, it would be greatly appreciated.
