Haven't read all the hands yet,
but in hand 2 your hand hasn't improved by the A on the river, unless you are up against specifically K7. The only reason to bet here is if you think your opponent will call with a worse hand that he would not have bet if checked to.
To win in poker you only need to be one step ahead of your opponents. Two steps may be detrimental.

Many of these are "Things I could get away with in 3/6 that I can't get away with in 5/10"

I had them reviewed by some other people, so I'm not so concerned about the review anymore. Interesting reading now, I guess

Hand 1: I don't mind the river 3 bet. You'll get called by a worse flush often. When he caps you are usually behind, but I think he caps ahead less often than he calls behind.

Hand 3: I don't cap the flop, but I would have raised the turn and folded to a 3 bet.

Hand 4: Yeah, I guess so.

Hand 5: What are you thinking capping the check-3bet from BB? You really think you are ahead of your opponents raises after a raise and reraise enough to cap? I think you can fold this turn against many opponents.

Hand 6: just check raise the flop. Quit trying to be sexy and giving free cards.

Hand 7: What the hell? I don't understand any part of this hand.

Hand 8: fold the turn. if you're gonna call down anyway, you might as well bet the whole way.

Hand 9: Quit calling down with AQ. you have crap. You need a very good read to call a river bet with AQo unimproved.

Hand 10: This is the worst hand ever. Quit check calling down with nothing.

Hand 11: totally over played again. AQo sucks when you miss the flop. Quit raising for free cards on a pair draw.

Hand 12: pretty easy flop fold. (though getting 8 to 1 isn't bad) I don't call here without a spade.
The river bet is spewing in a 4 way pot. any pair calls here.

Hand 13: You can bet/fold this turn unless you have a specific "tricky" read on BB. (even with top pair and a gutshot) the pot is small, and he knows its likely you have a K. I then probably check behind on the river anyway, because the board is ridiculous. I still call if he leads the river, but I think its pretty slim.

Hand 1: Same
Hand 2: Same though Demi has a point
Hand 3: Depending on reads I 3-be preflop to fold UTG and get position on SB
Hand 4: Same
Hand 5: I don't like the flop cap after BB checkraised. I don't even know I i like it at all with two players in the hand
Hand 6: I see where you are going and I'll do the same every now and then.
Hand 7: Call preflop overplayed all in all
Hand 8: If your gonna call anyways why not bet out instead.
Hand 9: you said it yourself
Hand 10: fold river
Hand 11: hmm you did get two free cards, however I'd prefer betting again on turn you might have a lot of FE
Hand 12: why call flop with two players left to act.
Hand 13: bet/fold turn
