Building a player profile

[StarGrinder]

Star would you elaborate a little on these?

*Brown - I'm not sure of what you would mean by Rock/fish?
*Blue - I'm assuming your talking a short stacker?
*Orange - assuming just all over the board type retard fish?

Just curious as I need to improve my system as well. I've pretty much been sticking with red for taggs and green for fish so I obviously need to expand and make it more comprehensive.

Thanks

Brown - Rock, as in nit.
Fit or fold. Extremely weak-tight, very narrow range obv. Plays most hands face-up. You can set hunt against these guys with the 10:1 implied odds because they can't fold over-pairs. Conversely, you can also flat them in LP with pretty much ATC b/c if they miss the flop with two unpaired over-cards, they almost always check/fold unless they have a decent draw. I do consider the rock a fish, but he's more of a timid catfish rather than a whale. You want to sit to the right of these guys and steal their blinds all day.

Blue - Short stack, aka fish
I say fish, b/c I don't run in to very many short stacks that are any good. Most are just as exploitable as the rock, but obv SPR is a lot lower and you have to make bets accordingly. And when playing on 40-100bb tables, it makes it even harder since they're not often 3betting AI for 40bb when facing an initial 3x PFR. I don't even really use this color code, unless I find a good reg short stack. Note: I have yet to find one <50nl. You usually want these guys sitting to your right, especially if they're loose, or overly-aggressive. You can sit to their right if they're tight and not-shove happy.

Orange - Maniac, yes as in retard fish
If a guy is running 78/65 over 60 hands, he's getting marked orange. However, if he's this much of a maniac, he's not going to be around for long. But at least I know not to sit to his right if I do happen to run in to him again, regardless if he's learned to tighten up. Sometimes these are just guys on tilt you've encountered for the first time too.

Most guys get marked as unknowns unless it's painfully obvious which player type they are. Like it's much easier to spot a fish than it is a rock. What you think is a rock might be a good reg but has been getting a run of 72o for the past 80 hands in terrible situations. So don't be lazy about changing a player type if it calls for it.

ALWAYS take good notes. I've really been focusing on this lately, which is why I'm only playing 2 tables ATM.
