How helpful is it to stalk really terrible players?

The fish turnover is too high... Old ones bust and leave forever, new ones come and you dont know who they are.. So you caught a fish, tagged him, and threw him back.. You're gonna ignore the other million fish to try to catch this one particular fish again? They're ALL fish! For the very small fraction of the population who aren't, you can figure out who they are in 1-2 orbits and keep your distance.. I say taking notes or stalking players is a HUGE waste of time. I was huge into notes when I started, and no matter how many notes I took, I'd just about never see anyone I took notes on again..

To the OP, nice loose table and big avg. pots are what I look for... 70+% PF callers with 10BB avg pots is great. Loose is better than big pots.. Loose with small pots means they fold out early (leaving YOU with the pot). Tight with large pots is just plain tight-aggressive, the kind of table that will be hardest to beat.
