    Default Taking notes

    I'm trying to work on my note taking so here are two hands from the same villain. What notes would you make on him? (At the start of Hand 1 he was 30/3 over 30 hands) (results shown for hopefully obvious reasons)

    Canada; the country all tucked away down there...
    Hand 1)
    Willing to call flop raise w/ 2nd pair.
    c/c turn and river with big hands when short stacked, doesnt shove.

    Hand 2)
    Can't lay down overpairs
    Can profitably set mine against if he has full stack
    Value bets strong with succeptible overpair
