I don't really play full ring that much anymore, but I do play these stakes at 6-max.

The way I have my HUD set up is to be red at a VPIP of 20 or less. These guys are tight, they are only coming into the pot with the top hands. I don't want to be in a hand with these guys unless I have something strong.

Yellow is 20-30, I still need to be cautious with these guys, most of their hands will be good, but they are likely to mix it up with mediocre hands as well.

30 to 100 is green. These guys are too loose. They play too many hands. The higher the number the more hands they play. I'm more willing to play weaker hands against these guys as even if I do, my hand is still likely to be better.

As for PFR, the higher the number the more they raise. Someone near 0 is only raising premium hands, someone with a high number is starting to lean towards maniac status (in lots of pots and always betting and raising).

I tend to stay away from those who range from VPIP of 18 to 28 and who also have a PFR of 10 to 25. I find these guys are usually the decent players.

But take my advice with a grain of salt, I know I'm an amateur at poker and a break even player at best. And I'm a little too tight and not quite aggressive enough.
