It is a good idea to make notes about the playing style of your opponents while playing poker. This will definitely increase your expected earnings. However, most beginning players do not know where or how to start. Therefore, we will give you some ideas below which will help you to make the right notes about your opponents. This is just another tool to win more in the long run!

1. With what hands does your opponent raise before the flop?

In case an opponent raise with hands in positions which is not conform the standard tight aggressive game, you should definitely make a note of that.
For example, in case the person raises when being UTG with in his/her hands. In this manner you will know which players are loose aggressive before the flop.

2. First call and then re raise?

Some players like to call with or (this is called limping) in the hope that someone else raises so that he/she can re raise that. It is important to keep in mind which players do this. Some also do this with lesser hands than AA or KK.

3. With which hand does the opponent call a raise before the flop?

It is important to know with which hands an opponent calls, especially in case he/she calls with hands which are not recommended to play in normal poker theory when dealing with a normal game (hands like or ).

4. With which hands does the opponent call a raise before the flop and makes a bet on the flop afterwards?

Try to keep track on which hands the opponent calls a raise before the flop in order to make a bet on the flop. Some players only do this with good hands (at least a two pair or three of a kind) whereas others also do this in order to get an idea about their position with regards to the rest. Those players will fold when they get hit by a reraise because they do not have a good hand.

5. Which players play every hand with an Ace?

Some players play every hand with an Ace regardless of the kicker. In most cases they also do this regardless of their position. This is fantastic to know when you have an Ace with a good kicker.

6. Which players play every hand with suited cards?

Just like the players who play every hand with an Ace there are also those who play every hand with two cards of the same suit. Often when players make the Ace mistake they also make the suited mistake. Players who behave like this are in general very bad players who make many mistakes.

7. Which players call every bet when they have a flush draw?

Players mentioned above often also make this mistake. In case they have a flush draw they call any bet in order to make a chance on the flush. It is important to make these players pay a lot for their gamble (in order to make them loose money in the long run given bad pot odds). In other words, bet the pot on the flop and again on the turn and fold when the flush is possible!

8. How does the opponent play Ace-King?

This is often also very interesting information given that this is often a hand you have to deal with when you face a pot in which there is a raise. Most players will make a continuation bet regardless whether or not there appeared an additional Ace or King at the flop. Furthermore it is interesting to know who will fold in case you make a re raise and who will call in the hope to hit an Ace or King at the turn. It is also interesting to know who makes a second continuation bet on the turn in case you just call on the flop. Most important to know is who will go all-in or call all-in in case there does appear an Ace or King at the flop.

Of course there are many other things you could make notes of but these are the basics you should start with. Hopefully it will make you more profitable!
