Perhaps he could have c/r the flop hoping the Hero would check behind on the turn as well?

Loose,fishy,is capable of bluffing river when he misses his draws

I always start my notes with the date and since I have started playing another limit plus some NL I put the limit at the end.
072205 called raise HU bb 34s, called down, bluffed dbl pr board .50/1.00

I'd probably just put 'bluffed at river' in this one. I'd have to see more play before I put in anything else. If it is something along the lines of what I would expect a player with his PT stats I don't bother. For instance, a K5o call down to the river on a 65/1/.56 player.

I almost never see people I put notes on... or at least didn't.

The few times I have seen my notes on people I've gone 'Oohhhh... I remember him', so I guess I'm taking good enough notes for myself.

I don't use all kinds of abbreviations, codes or what not, except for the standard 'pfr' for pre-flop raise.

If I want to see any information on specific hands he plays, I jump over to PT and bring him up.

I'm making an attempt to respond to more posts without looking at responses, so sorry if any of this has been said already...

def BB from MPr w/ 43s, c/c F K72 fd, c/c T 7, donk R 2 (no flush) 7/22 .5/1

I like putting the date and limit in the notes so I know if a player has moved up a limit and how long ago the play happened, because I've had a few incidents where a note on a player was incorrect because they changed their style of play over a couple of months.

people have mentioned that they often will not ever see the person that they take notes on again at the tables, but no one has mentioned the other side effect that aggressive note-taking has - it forces you to analyze and describe the poker tendancies of the people that you are playing with right now.

Note taking just keeps me focused on the game, and I'll often make a note on a player when I fold pre-flop if I see something interesting go on and the cards get shown down.

That said I try to stay general with my notes, and I only write down things that seem out of line. Therefore this player would only get a

"R bluff w/ missed fl drw"

from me.
