OK, So I am always amazed by the vloggers, and other players I talk with when recalling hands. They recall details so well it seems. Maybe they all have great notes, I’m not sure, but I just cant seem to do that. I generally pay pretty close attention in every hand, and actively analyze whats going on. In the moment I usually feel pretty good about my reads and lines. Usually, lol. But if you ask me about a hand 3 days after it happened I will be a complete blank for about 98% of them.
I do take notes. I use RunGood. I try to type detailed notes for big/important hands as soon as it happens (mostly so I can ask people about it later) but often find that hard to do because then next hand is playing, and the next…. And I do try to pay attention.
So my question is 2 fold. Firstly, maybe my memory is just shit compared to some of these people. Anyone have any good memory boosting techniques/exercises/ideas/advice?
Secondly, does anyone have a more efficient way of taking detailed hand notes? A way that doesn’t mean I need to sit out of the next 2 hands to type it all out on my phone before I forget what the turn card was, or what the 3bet amount was? Because if I wait an orbit, that shit gets fuzzy. By the end of session specific details are bout gone.
