VP$P - 19.72% (I strictly follow the tight/loose guidelines laid out in SSHE, depending on the table)

Seem reasonable to me, some might argue you could be a tad bit tighter, but at $2/$4 there are enough places where looser than normal calls are acceptable.

BB/100 = 2.58 is this good, bad , or just okay?
[/ QUOTE ]
….and you win rate is an indicator. 2.58 would be considered a very solid win rate

Won $ @ showdown = 50% Should this percentage be higher? If I've played all the way to the river, I rarely fold (unless obvious situations, like facing a bet and a raise when I'm on a busted draw) so I think that has decreased my win % a little.
[/ QUOTE ]
I like mine at %55 percent. Much higher than 55% and you are probably playing to tight and leaving some money on the table. – Certainly lower than %50 and you’d have some issues. If you are right at %50 WITH a 2.58 BB/100 – you’re doing a good job at extracting bets out of your hands.

PreF raise = 6.43% again, I tend to follow the SSHE guidelines.
[/ QUOTE ]
This could be bump up a few spots – you are probably raising all the obvious hands, but what about hands like KJs or QJs on the button, or ATs out of the blinds – stuff like that….

Post F aggression = 1.38 I feel this is an important stat and I din't kow if this number is good, bad, or ok.
[/ QUOTE ]
This needs to come way up. Make sure you are raising for value on your big draws, and protecting your hand as well. Don’t be afraid to play your middle pairs strong in unraised pots, Raise to buy outs, Free Cards, etc etc. Are you checking-raising Late bettors, with hands that might be good.

I know there are tons of other stats, but off the top of my head these seem like the key ones, but I can post other stats if it would aid receiving useful comments.
[/ QUOTE ]
You hit the big ones. Check your Cold Calling, and position stats as well.

Next, if someone could key me in on taking advantage of bonuses (or post a link to a thread if its been discussed recently and I just missed it). I strictly play partypoker, and just took advantage of their reload bonus. what should I do next? Which site should I visit next? etc. I have about a $1000 bankroll (I know some will say that is too small for 2/4.....oh well!)
[/ QUOTE ]
www.bonuswhores.com will be a good start. Or hang out in the internet fourm. Generally they are the first to pick up on bonuses that are out there. Don’t be afraid to explore other sites to build a bankroll.

Third, how do people prevent carpal tunnel syndrome when playing online poker???!!!!! Any good mouse recommendations? or a wrist brace?????
[/ QUOTE ]
Take more breaks…
[ QUOTE ]
Lastly, I've had a hard time finding a thread that explains all the shorthand and abreviations that people use when discussing particular hands. Any help would be appreciated!

Check the side bar, down towards the end there is a link that says Abbreviations. Oh Hell I guess I’ll stop being lazy.
