I can't win anymore

i strongly believe that you have not played enough hands (hours) to make any conclusions yet. i also strongly believe that you are somewhat a better player now than before you read the book, but you might not be applying the extra knowledge correctly yet. i also believe that you now can recognize majority of the fishes and are somewhat over-confident about your own abilities.

what i suggest is keep at it and keep learning / contributing at 2+2.

best of luck and best of skills,

I have tilted at the table, once big-time. I stepped up to the $2/$4 tables to see what it was like (I didn't like it).

I've been playing a lot of hands, more than the "Advanced" book suggests, but I do this because I can usually get in for one bet as I avoid tables where there is lots of pre-flop raising. Is it correct to play Group 1 through 6 from any position if you are fairly confident you can get in for a single bet?

Here are the things I took quite seriously from HPFAP and retained for low limit games
1. if your hand is worth a check and a call, it is worth a bet. Being agressive makes a big difference at low limits. At a lot of tables I win pots just by betting, especially if they see you only play good cards or win several big pots.

2. semi-bluffing. if your table image is aggressive, semi-bluffing works.

3. free cards - by being aggresive, people will check to you and you can decide to bet or check.

Here are things which don't work in low limit games, IMHO:

1. slow-playing - I have lost multiple flop flushes, even A high trying this.

2. full bluffs - rarely does this work

Good luck
