What's your question Eug?

Here are my thoughts about the hands:
1. What's your reasoning for betting the turn? Do you want him to fold a pair better than yours, or do you want value from your pair?
Against a huge CS like I think checking behind turn is better because you have showdown value.
If you want villain to fold a better hand than yours you should bet harder.

2.This is fine.

3. After hand 2 I'm inclined to fold hand 3 to a PS river bet.
I also like betting turn more than checking against this opponent, because he'll call with a lot of worse hands.

4. Also fine.

 Don't bluff if he's unbluffable. Valuetown him to death.

 1) I play the same. You can get value by betting 2 streets here believe it or not.

2) same opponent as above? It's close but i might fold.

3) I would b/f the river and probably bet turn.

4) raise to like 25ish, its funny how many times this type of player assumes your fos and shoves.

Why are you c-betting missed flops v's someone who doesnt fold to a c-bet?

Isolate him PF with any two big cards, if you hit your pair take him to value town, if you dont check it down.
Just playing to improve.

I guess the question is, in a hand like the 66 one above, is this a bluff, or is this value-towning him against his random two cards?

My intention in all of these hands was to be betting for value.

Hand 3 isn't an automatic call.

The rest are pretty standard.
