PokerAce HUD and Custom Layouts

I'm working on a PAHud layout for NL Holdem that pretty much makes the other player's range DEAD obvious:

Notice me in the 6-seat, with almost a double stack. Seriously though, this layout utilizes the "Combined Stats 1" stat in PokerAceHUD. I placed the stat bar over each player's name in the following format: VP$IP/PFR/CPFR/AF-T/Hands

VP$IP: Voluntarily Put $ In Pot
PFR: Pre-Flop Raise
CPFR: Call Pre-Flop Raise
AF-T: Aggression Factor-Total
Hands: Number of Hands in DB

Now, how do we use this information? Let's look at the player in the 1-seat. Remember when I told everyone to download PokerStove? Here's where it comes in useful. What does this stat line tell us? His VP$IP is 16%, which makes him pretty tight. Specifically, it tells us that he plays the top 16% of his hands (with respect to position, of course...a little more in LP, a little less in EP). His general range therefore is (using PokerStove's help): 22+, A8s+, KTs+, QTs+, JTs+, AT+, KJ+, QJ+

There is also more info there. You know you have hands you play, hands you raise, and hands you'll call a raise with to play. His PFR is 5%, so he's raising with the top 5% of hands: 99+, AJs+, KQs+, AK. However, he'll call raises to play 12% of his hands, which is essentially the entire rest of his range. So, if he's raising, he likely has a top 5% hand, but if he calls a raise, he either has one of his top 5% hands, or a hand in the top 12% range (his CPFR number).

So, what do we know?
He's in with 22+, A8s+, KTs+, QTs+, JTs+, AT+, KJ+, QJ+. (16%)
He raises with 99+, AJs+, KQs+, AK. (5%)
He's calling raises with 77+, A9s+, any two suited Broadway cards, AT+, KQ. (12%)

This is how PokerTracker and PAHud can help you be a bigger winner.
