1. Capture the facts first
Save game state before results: player count, stack depth, position, board texture, and action order.
If context is missing, later analysis becomes guesswork.
2. Separate outcomes from decision quality
Short-term outcomes are noisy. Evaluate whether your decision made sense with available information.
This keeps review focused on process, not variance.
- Set a preflop range assumption
- Write one reason per street
- Define one change for your next session
3. Convert notes into actions
Finish each review with a specific action you can execute next time.
Example: lock c-bet sizing in BTN vs BB single-raised pots.
