watching other players

[check raiser]

I try to get tells, paterns and other info from the other players at the table. I can not seem to get info on all 8 players on a full table, and have been reduced to focusing on any fish that stick out and rocks that may be on the table. Do I even need to have details on all at the table? This is complicated when you have some turnover.

I wanted to know if anyone has any table and player observation skills they could share.

I play 1-3NL and have more winning session that losing, but feel I can only watch 4 or 5 players effectively.

I am a first time poster, but have read your advice for a while and it have been useful.

Thanks
