I agree, I'm a newbie as well, but I've learned a bit about the game so far. I'm assuming by the way you talk about multi-tablers, that you don't do so yourself. I used to not multi-table until I realized the boredom of it resulted in impatience, which translated to having higher hopes per hand than I should.
Is it possible this is your problem? You play a patient game, and when you finally get a hand, you have trouble letting it go because you don't want to wait another 15 minutes before you get a decent hand? You might want to add another table or two to spice things up a bit.
I know it sure helped me, and my profit margin went through the roof because I didn't have such high hopes per hand than I would of when I was single tabling.
As far as "reading the fish" goes. It's not easy, because often times they don't really know what they're doing in there, and they'll play their hand in a way that makes sense to them, without regard to any kind of common sense approach to the hand. Not to mention it varies from fish to fish. Good news is, fish don't go to great lengths to disguise their play, so once you figure them out, they're money is as good as yours.
Just my observations...
