If you've set it up correctly you should see the HUD appear on active tables you are playing, a small box with player stats will appear next to each player at the table. When you have played some hands you will be able to go into PT and review the hands, look at your statistics and graph your winnings and more. It is a bit of a bitch to set up but so worth it once you get it going. Go to the PT website there are loads of tutorials on how to set it up and forums and their customer support is really good too.

Yeah if your not seeing anything you probably haven't set up the websites correctly within the program. Go to Configure>Sites & Import Options then navigate to whatever site/network you play on and make sure that you have the correct directory listed for where your hand histories save. The program relies on hand histories in order to display info on the hud. Once you do that just hit the play poker option just below the upper menu with File and all the other stuff. From there hit Get Hands while playing and you should be good to go. The first time you do this it might take a while because the program is going to be importing every hand you have in those hand histories so be patient. Now when you open a table it should auto import your hands. Once you join and are playing give it a hand or two and you'll see the HUD appear. Once the HUD appears on a table you'll also see a mini menu on the table with two buttons. The left deals with previous hands(History viewer, display last hand, and allows you to mark the last few hands for special review later) The right button has all the options you'll need for kinda customizing the HUD to how and where you want it to display. Hit unlock layout and place things where they are convenient and not blocking anything. Once you have things how you want them hit Save and lock layout.
