When ppl are playing numerous tables, say 12+, and they refer to a `read` on someone, are they solely referring to xx/yy/zz stats on their HUD.
ie, high postflop agg factor, rr cb, low agg factor fold to cb etc.
I find it impossible to comprehend how someone would have a read without this info at hand.
Surely there is not enough time to type player notes on someone with the time restriction you have, which brings me to another question, is there a tracking software that when you finish your session, close down all tables and analyse your game through whatever software you are using, you can make player notes via that software, so that when you log back on to play, those notes will automatically be assigned to that player on the poker site?

Thanks

people probably have a combination of notes and stats. Stats are a backup when notes arent available. the better one is at multitabling and the better one is at poker the less difficult decisions there are and hence you have more time to write notes. For me the one thing that is a bit tricky is when i want to make a note and a table keeps popping up so i end up having to click back a few times to get my note complete....even when using shorthand notes.

IMO everyone has their own plateau as to number of tables they can play. I cant do 12 lest my head explodes.

I always multitable and i take notes when i see things/hands of interest. I focus on plays that dont see standard (Even before i see SD) and reasonable sized pots against players who have bad stats. Why? because i want reads to go with my HUD stats on players who's money will be easiest to get.

as for notes and pokertracker/hem, im pretty sure you can do import and export notes in both. of course, i use HEM mostly and havent tried it as dont import/export notes even though i know i probably should

12 is the max I will play and I'm normally pretty stretched at that number.

Some people say "read" when they mean stats but if I have stats I will quote them. What I mean if I say "read" is some behaviour that is not captured by stats. For instance, some players bet half pot without a hand and full pot with one. Or, some players donk bet marginal hands and checkraise strong ones. Something like that.

when i am against an opponent in a big pot 24 tabling i put the table to the side ( since i have a big screen) and look at previous hands the person has played by looking at poker tracker and his stats.
