Default First Micro Post and a Hand

Hey everyone. I plan on being around here a lot so I thought I'd give a good intro post. I'm a college student (a math major who's just starting to get heavy into statistics) and I started checking out online poker in january after crushing our weekly game, although I'd never played before this year. I played micro NL online and didnt do anything special money wise, until spring break. I was wandering around B&N and SSH caught my eye for some reason. I guess it was my luck that it was this book that caught my eye and not one of the 200 other poker books, but I read it, ate it up, took it home, and made 400 dollars this week.

Then I came here since it was mentioned in the book

enough about me... a hand. I think I've been a little too aggressive (16.8/8.8 and 3.4 flop AF only 1K hands though), and this might be a good example. I can't get hand converter to work yet (please check out my post in the beginners forum) so this is my attempt at getting the right format

Pokerroom 1/2 Hold'em (10 handed)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with Ad, Qh.
5 folds, Hero raises, 3 folds, BB calls

Flop: (4.50 SB) 4d,5h,2c (2 players)
BB bets, Hero raises, BB calls

-I assume he has a pair but I raised for two reasons: I see the gutshot and two overs. I think by themselves this doesn't give me enough pot equity for HU so its probably wrong. However I want a free card to see if I hit one on the river, and I want to make sure he's serious... I raised preflop so he might be scared of a PP.

Turn (4.25 BB) 4s
BB checks, Hero checks

...

I've been frequently taking stabs on the flop and turn with marginal draws on ragged flops (1 over + backdoor, 2 overs, etc) against 1 or 2 people, and it seems to be paying off. What do you think? How do I manipulate PT to see if this is working?

Thanks
