Do you guys keep record of your live play?...
 

If so, what do you keep track of, and what do you use to keep track of it (like a note book or journal)?

Re: Do you guys keep record of your live play?...
 

Excel spreadsheet.

I carry a small wire-bound notebook into the poker room and hide it in a pocket so I can write down details in the restroom or otherwise away from sight of my opponents.

I'm also a huge nerd, so I track tokes and drink tips. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Yes I use the free Poker Analyst at http://www.cardplayer.com/poker-analyst/overview/ to record all my live playing sessions. Simple stuff but effective to see how I'm doing for the year.

Yes. Spreadsheet.

I do.

I keep a written record on a note card in my 'poker wallet' that when it fills up gets transferred to an Excel spredsheet
For each location and each limit I have a distinct 'sheet' within the more encompassing spreadsheet. On each of those I keep track of the following info for each session:

Date/Time start
Date/Time end
Buy-in
Cash-out
Size of the big bet if cash game
Place finished in tourney if a tourney

From that info I calculate for each session:
total hours played
total cash won/lost
# big bets won/lost
# big bets won/lost per hour
Average big bets won/lost per hour

I keep a running total for the each game (location/limit) of all this info as well.

Finally on a separate 'sheet' I total everything up to get:

total buy-ins
total cash-outs
net winnings
total hours played
%/hr

*gasp* I lied. Such is Microsoft's mindshare in the spreadsheet market....

I actually use OpenOffice, which is free and capable of saving in XLS format.

Re: Do you guys keep record of your live play?...
 

I use StatKing. Excel does everything SK does, so that's totally viable. You could use the OpenOffice spreadsheet program if you don't have Excel.

Why not the cost of gas to get to and from the cardroom? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
