Re: Table selection at the micro level...
I don't often play more than 4 tables, so this won't be much use if you do, but I really like to watch how people are playing rather than just stats. I do this by seeing how they played a hand out, reviewing the HH using FTP's last 50 hand viewer (rather than switching to PT). If I see any sign of fishy from anyone on the table, then I stay.
The stats thing can be misleading sometimes. You join a 5 player table showing 42%VPIP and think whippee -- and it turns out to be a bunch of nits. One thing I've noticed is that if a player is sitting out when you sign on, start to suspect the vpip stat, as that player may have been sitting out for a while (as might have the newly empty seat.)
