ok, I feel like I spew in the absolute worst ways. Maybe Im just not confident, but instead of really aggressive spewing, I find myself passively spewing, which of course gets very few show downs. Heres an example.

dealt to hero

utg calls .50, utg+1 raises to $1, 1fold, hero raises to $4.5

flop:

hero bets $7, utg+1 calls

turn:
hero c/c $5.5

river:

hero c/f to $13

So are you saying you should be the turn again or call the river?

- betting turn good
- calling river bad

Genitruc is an unknown quantity at this point
Nothing glaringly wrong with this hand imo.

Sometimes I check flop if opponent sux and won't put pressure on me without a big hand.

Sometimes bet/fold turn.

Sometimes bluff push river (after taking the line you took).

But I don't think your line is terrible.
when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?
