If you are now or are going to become a serious poker player, keeping accurate records is an absolute must! So you might as well start it from the beginning. I always used 2 small notebooks that I could carry in my pocket. (Yes, that small!) It is not how much you write, is what you write. In one of them, I kept and still keep track of every penny lost and every penny earned. That tells the story. It keeps getting better, too, if you are a PCer! In the other one, I kept notes of new things I learned that I didn't want to forget. Like from lessons. That was one half of that notebook. The other half, I keep notes about players I keep coming up against at the tables. Their names and whether they are bluffers or good players or lousy players -- anything that helps you know how to play against them. Might as well get used to those 2 tiny notebooks. You will be learning more and more about poker for as long as you live!
