Player Profiling

So one of the most important and satisfying aspects of online poker is that you can save notes, and often 'color',  for certain players. One of the tools I use to profile players is Phil Hellmuth's Creature Guide (pictured below). As you can see it gives a color and animal to associate a player based on their playing tendencies. Full Tilt Poker, the site I use most often, is probably the best for using this feature. Poker Stars is ok but it doesn't allow you to assign a color to each player. I will go over this more in depth in the official Sit and Go Expert program, but for now you should get used to keeping track of each player's type...

  1. This is a tad inaccurate. You can make the same labels on Stars (not sure if more colors or less), though I like your idea.

    Its under Options, Player Notes Management, Player Note Labels.

    You can even import player notes (presuming they have the same user name on other sites).

  2. To assign a color, when typing the note, click on the color icon (the Yellow thing), and it brings up the other labels.

  3. I don't play on Stars that much, just remembered that you couldn't colour the player notes. But thanks for the post.
