How many stats do you display on your HUD? I'm still using the default opponent stats for PAHUD, and I'm thinking of adding some additional ones. At first, it was confusing and distracting, but I've gotten used to the HUD.

Also, how high does the SB and BB's "Fold To Steal %" need to be before you're willing to steal with ATC from button or SB?

It's all about information processing. I can only process so much at once. If you can take in and apply alot of information about an opponent quickly, assuming you multi-table, then put up alot of different stats. As I get comfortable I add more information.

At this point I'm using my stats to give me an overall impression of my villains, not necessarily a good read. Playing NL10 and NL25 I find that I don't play enough hands with any one individual to get a really good stats read. I display VPIP, PFR, Post flop aggro, and %Went to showdown. I also show # of hands played, which gives me an idea of how close to accurate the stats are.

As far as blind stealing, I just usually look at VPIP for that. As VPIP goes up the quality of hands that I will try to steal with goes up. Edit: Oh, and stack sizes need to be taken into account a bit also.
