Your sample as you said is way too small, but here are the numbers to look at.

VP$IP: 22.55 --- a little too high -- you want that number under 20 and closer to 17

W$WSF: 23.66 --- This number is low, you are probably in a bad run of cards, but lowering your VP$P will make this increase.

PFR raise is good
Aggression is Good (some would say it needs to be higher) -- Flop aggression should be higher than Turn, but again small sample may have something to do with that

You may be calling down with second best too much. You don't look too far off, and for 1000 hands is really hard to tell. Anyone can be down 3bb/100 for a 1000 hands.

Definately not fish numbers

all your stats look good.
22% VPIP is not high for 0.5/1.

hand 1: limping AQ preflop is a sin. you screwed up the turn and the river big time. raise the turn, call the river.

hand 2: well played

hand 3: bet the flop. call the turn.

hand 4: call the river raise.

hand 5: call down mode after the 3bet

hand 6: well played

hand 7: raise the flop. that is a horrible fold. p.s. both your opponents are idiots for not raising preflop.

hand 8: i usually fire again on the river since it's likely they were on the a flush draw.

hand 9: hand history all screwed up.

hand 10: hand history screwed up again. fold the river.

hand 11: call the flop. raise the turn on a safe card. bet the river, and probably fold to a raise against most opponents.

hand 12: raise or fold the flop.

hand 13: i would call the turn just in case a queen falls. the pot is getting pretty big and you close action.

hand 14: raise the flop

hand 15: how can you not bet this river??

hand 16: well played

hand 17: SOP

hand 18: bet the river

hand 19: call preflop. fold the river to the first bet.

hand 20: sometimes betting the turn, and checking the river is better.

hand 21: tryin to find a fold somewhere but i don't feel good having it in there...

hand 22: SOP

Hand 1: Raise preflop to chase out the trash flush limper. Chances are he would have seen your raise anyway, but it's correct to attempt to chase out as many as possible. Fold on the turn. UTG+1 became aggressive only when the third diamond showed. He did you a favor by betting his flush right away. Fold immediately.

Hand 2: Nothing you could do here. You three bet the flop representing the flush well, and they still hung around. The smooth calls of your bet on the turn told you no one had the flush. You played it strong and well, but unfortunately for you AK was out there and called you down. The guy with AK gambled that you didn't have the flush, and he was right so he wins.

Hand 3: Raise the flop when checked to. Two overcards popped, but weakness was shown. You have to believe your pair of 9's are good here three handed. I have no idea why UTG bet the turn when yet another over to his 3's as well as a straight draw coordinated. I guess he has brain damage. To answer your question, the raise call was correct on the open ended turn because the 8 was an undercard to your 9's.

Hand 4: Check-call the river. You want a showdown, but you don't want to get raised here when the second jack pops. Definately don't 3-bet. That was a mistake. Whenever the board coordinates when you have a good hand, check-call the river for showdown unless your certain your beat. In that case check-fold.

Hand 5: Fold on the turn raise. Your not respecting the board.

Hand 6: You did the right thing by folding. What are the odds of that runner runner coming out vs all the times you might chase it in the future thinking of what might have been? Let it go. This is one of those hands you laugh about.

Hand 7: Chicken fold definately, but apparently a correct fold. You saved a bet here, because you would have had to fold when the CO raised putting at least one of them ahead of you.

Hand 8: You did fine. The guy hung around with a 2. What can you do? You had to check the river when the straight showed.

Hand 9: I don't think you played bad here until you bet out the flop like a numb nut. You had to 3-bet the tens in my opinion preflop. When it got capped you had to at least see your flop while almost admitting defeat right there. After the preflop cap, you have to treat the tens like a small pocket pair hoping to flop a set. Beyond that it's bye bye because your dominated.

Hand 10: Nothing you can do. You saved bets. The guy with tens is going to hang around all day with only one board card higher than his pair.

Hand 11: Not too timid. You played it perfect.

Hand 12: I might have hung around here. You have a gut shot draw as well as 2 outs to the nut trips and 3 outs to the A. Total of 9 good outs after the flop that I see. Were you aware you had so many?

Hand 13: That many people in hand is trouble when the overcard pops. Just check/fold if raised into. Tough break no isolation and you got some weak A4 callers.

Hand 14: Raise the flop unless it's a rainbow. It wasn't so raise. You might chase out a drawing hand that could beat you. Greed will hurt you. Good poker players use leverage to chase out winning hands and take down pots. Don't slow play a two suited flop.

I'm exhausted. Too many hands. That's all I got for you for now.
It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.
