- I think you played this too passively overall and failed to extract maximum value from your big hands by slowplaying too much. Don't be afraid that they are going to fold to a bet, particularly when you have a read on your opp that they will call down with bottom pair or even air.
- Never check the river with a strong hand like a full house or trips unless you're POSITIVE that opp will bluff the river; always bet at least 1/2 pot.
- If your flop or turn bets have been called, be careful with continuing the bluff on the river if you're in position - very often you'll only get called by hands that you beat - take the free showdown if offered if all you've got is bottom pair on the flop.

1. J8o - I'd raise it preflop, 450 to go. As played, on the flop I think the call is fine. Once you hit 2 pair on the turn, I'd raise it. You have a vulnerable hand, I'd make it 900 to go. If opp has top pair any kicker he won't fold here, and in fact he might shove since the 8 is not a scare card. On the river, you really need to bet more. There is 2100 in the pot, bet at least 1/2 pot. I'd bet 1200 here. I think you lost a lot of value by not trying to get AI on this hand.

2. QTo - I'd raise it preflop. 450 to go. Don't let him see a free flop when your hand is above average. As played, the turn bet is fine but I'd c/f the river.

3. J3o - nice. I try to make as many of my HU hands as possible look like this.

4. K4o - I'd fold preflop. Don't like playing hands that are difficult to play like K4o OOP on the flop.

6. AA - I'd raise it preflop. You've been raising quite a lot preflop, a side benefit of this is that it disguises your big hands. I'd bet the flop too, if they fold then meh.

8. 96o - I'd bet the flop when you hit middle pair. Most flops miss most hands so I'd make it 300 to go on the flop.

10. A4s - I'd raise it preflop. You have a suited ace, that's a good hand heads up. Who knows, opp might just let it go preflop.

11. 94o - folding this isn't terrible, let's opp think that you're being at least somewhat selective. As played, again, I'd bet the flop for 300 with bottom pair. As played, I would definitely check behind on the river - betting is pointless as nothing you beat will fold and only hands that beat you will call, so try to get to showdown as cheap as you can.

14. 52s - ugh, this was bad. Against one opp on a rainbow flop checking the flop is OK I guess. On the turn, I would either bet or C/R the turn. I want to get As played, why didn't you bet the river?!?!?! I bet at least 800 here since opp has shown a tendency to call you down with very weak hands. You lost a lot of value here IMO.

15. J4s - I would just shove all-in on the flop with your bottom pair and flush draw. Whilst it is a massive overbet, you really want to take it down now and if not, then get your chips in as a 50/50 favourite unless opp flopped a set or has a higher flush draw (both very unlikely). As played, I would just open shove the turn since you're not folding here.
