Used to play 25NL until I lost my job and had to withdraw my BR to live on. I left $50 in PokerStars for I could build my way back up. I think it's a nice challenge for myself right now. Still looking for a job, hopefully one comes in. Now, onto why you came in the thread and not my personal life.
Hand #1 - Villain is 45/12/5 over 25 Hands. I think I have to get it all in on this flop. I know it's an over-push but if I just call I know I'm not getting anymore value out of this hand if I hit. Would love some info on this one.

Hand #2 - Villain is 54/6/1 over 60 Hands. This hand almost made me throw up after the Turn and River. I was contemplating on pushing that river card but I decided just to call hoping to boat. I know the river was an easy fold but it was just a sick hand.

I thought I would show ya what I have done in the last 6 days. Will prob be moving up to 5NL by Sunday or Monday. Here are a look at my stats and Graph.
Also, some people would just call this a heater but it really isn't. The two hands above are the only ones out of the 3.8k I had trouble on. I started out just buying in for $2 (100BB) like I normally would at the higher stakes but after the first 200 hands I noticed how bad these guys are and just bought in for $5.
