Thanks so far for all the suggestions and info.  It is helping.

A buddy of mine set me up with $25 in my poker stars account and I have been experimenting with it.  I downloaded the new version of the poker tracker and have been playing the micro stakes  NLH full ring games. I got a few questions because its a very different game than live.

1) Pot size:  I find that I am winning lots of small pots but find it hard to build and win big pots.  I am losing too many of the bigger pots.  It could be a run of bad cards because of my small sample size. Or it could be something I'm doing wrong.

2) The HUD:  How is this thing useful?  I multi 4 tables at a time and tile them.  I can pay attention pretty well to whats going on.  The HUD though distracts me. I some times turn it off.  I don't know how to use it.

Below is how I use it.  Please feel free to correct/add to it.

VP:  This tells me how loose a player is.  The higher the number here the less credit I give to his hands.
PR:  This also helps me with hand ranges.  If  a player with a low number here raises I give them credit for a big one.
AFq: This I'm not really sure how to take.  This could be that they try to buy pots a lot, or it could just be that they bet a lot.  I use it to see how much I'm gonna have to commit to the pot.

My numbers so far: 
1700 hands at .01/.02
Up about 6 dollars.
16bb/hour

(how do I get my HUD stats from PT?) I would like to show them to get ideas about them.

So far, I am pretty happy.  I was down a lot compared to the stakes at first.  My first thousand hands was just lose lose lose after the money went in.  I don't like the stakes, and am waiting to get a few more dollars before moving up.  There are bad players.  More than I expected.  So many people continuation bet bad boards.  I also find a lot of people like to fire on the flop and then check the turn when weak.  Any suggestions are still appreciated.
