All but 50 hands were at 10-seat NLH tables.bradhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15239753272108418442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7012366747492399470.post-70848731117124136302007-11-02T12:08:00.000-07:002007-11-02T12:08:00.000-07:00I ran into Brad at .02/.04, so I believe he is tak...I ran into Brad at .02/.04, so I believe he is taking something close to Ferguson's approach.<BR/><BR/>And yes, I hate both you guys, Marsh for Crushing me completely, and Brad for passing me in a week...Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00129622740872167902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7012366747492399470.post-21528126005857512002007-11-02T12:05:00.000-07:002007-11-02T12:05:00.000-07:00Wow what stakes are you playing Brad?Wow what stakes are you playing Brad?Marshallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05026007603250510224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7012366747492399470.post-13499271574943275742007-11-02T09:09:00.000-07:002007-11-02T09:09:00.000-07:00ok, out of the shadows...i've been eavesdropping o...ok, out of the shadows...<BR/><BR/>i've been eavesdropping on TNP for about a month, and i signed up for cake about 10 days ago. <BR/><BR/>wasn't sure if i'd have time for the challenge. hence, the shadows.<BR/><BR/>but i've had quite a bit of time this week, and i've worked my $50 up to $99.83.<BR/><BR/>ryan -- hook me up with posting permissions here. i'll probably chime in from time to time. although, with my 3 jobs and graduate school, my energy for blogging is pretty minimal.bradhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15239753272108418442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7012366747492399470.post-428158826981779862007-11-02T07:56:00.000-07:002007-11-02T07:56:00.000-07:00I don't have permission to view your spreadsheet a...I don't have permission to view your spreadsheet anymore, did something change?Austinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13504082350045633952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7012366747492399470.post-68963210426118678832007-11-01T13:13:00.000-07:002007-11-01T13:13:00.000-07:00Yeah that's what I tend to do.What kind of things ...Yeah that's what I tend to do.<BR/><BR/>What kind of things do you people take notes on?<BR/><BR/>My most common notes are things like:<BR/> * hasn't played a hand in x orbits<BR/> * limp/call<BR/> * limp/fold<BR/> * 3 bets me light<BR/><BR/>Eventually if I play with someone long enough I'll boil those down into an all-caps generalization like "STATION" or "AGGRO DONK."jsolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11400143652119692926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7012366747492399470.post-86017349120273109942007-11-01T11:58:00.000-07:002007-11-01T11:58:00.000-07:00Yes, good point.

If it starts to build a pattern, then you can delete the specifics and replace it with a well-founded generalization.Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00129622740872167902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7012366747492399470.post-35146655217997193952007-11-01T11:53:00.000-07:002007-11-01T11:53:00.000-07:00Notes for MalakiCnstnt: Habitual Slowplayer LOL.I...Notes for MalakiCnstnt: Habitual Slowplayer LOL.<BR/><BR/>I have been taking not so detailed notes on many of the players I recognize at my tables too. I try not to be too general, I just put what they did with a specific hand, and when. A typical note will be:<BR/><BR/>"over bet preflop with KK, then jammed on an A high flop."<BR/><BR/>I don't want to catch someone on tilt and make a generalization about them that costs me one or two big pots later.Marshallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05026007603250510224noreply@blogger.com
