Smart Poker Player Guide

Organize the players in your game needs a system of note-taking that can quickly inform you about what type of opponent you face. In online poker, take notes is quite easy, so you can classify a player and use this information at a later date.

There are two areas of classification that should be considered first. They are the symbol of passive-aggressive and loose notes tightened.

To adapt easily to the kind of player that the opponent is about to happen, you need a system for taking notes that are easy to remember and record.

One of the easiest I’ve found is the alphanumeric system. With this system, you assign letters to the degree of passive-aggressive player and numbers to the degree of loose-tight play.

Passive-aggressive Rating

The passive player is one who never arises, but tends to call. The aggressive player is one that always arises when in a pot. All players enter one of these categories, to some extent. You know what this is, tells you what kind of player he is.

For recording this type of player I assign letters A to E.

‘A’ is the passive player and “E” the most aggressive player. So if a player has been somewhat aggressive is assigned the letter “C”, which means it is not aggressive at all times, but it is too passive.

Note Loose-Tight

The loose player is someone who plays in many pots. He tends to call or raise each store. The tight player will only play a few pots. Again, each player is somewhere in one of these categories.

Recording a game that I can add numbers 1-5.

The number “1″ would be the tightest player and “5″ for the player loose. Therefore, if a player has an average number of hands (one out of three hands), is assigned the number “3″, which means he saw the flop 30% of the time.

Remember when assigning notes to make regarding the game you normally play in In other words, the loose player in your normal 5-player and the tightest of 1 and use them as benchmark for all other players. This also applies to passive and aggressive players.

Once you’re in a game to compare notes you have on other players. Then watch them play and see if they still match what you’ve written about them. This is important because people tend to change their style of play after a while.

Another thing to compare what happens in online games is the player who plays on several tables. These players tend to play one game, because they must see more than a game I usually put a “+” sign in their ratings for the show.

After mastering this system, you will see that you invent other codes to give more information about each player.
