10 hands from today

Nothing weird here. These are pretty basic for you guys but I suck so any comments would be great. My betting especially needs a lot of help.

HAND 1:

Tight table, 2xBB bets were working for blind steals.
My main question is the proper river value bet. I figured him for a straight, maybe he's got an ace. I figured a straight would call ~1/3 pot, an ace might reraise me and I'd put him all in then. Also, was the CR on the turn too obvious?

I figured this for one of those "you're only going to get called if you're beat" hands. 77-99, Kx... A strong bet would've taken it from me (is that too weak thinking?).

HAND 5:

Fold preflop, I know. With so many limpers once in a while I'll get in cheap and see what develops. Probably a bad habit.
Just wondering if I could've gotten him to go all in. Is the rule of thumb to go AI after a reraise?

HAND 8:

Twitchy mouse finger-- I meant to raise more. I thought UTG waking up and betting the turn was suspicious (99? T9?) so I called down.

Some days I just should realize aren't good to play poker. I don't want to reraise aces PF every time; maybe I should.

It's tough for me to remember all 10 hands, but I'll check back and give you my best response for them.

Hand 1: If he's calling $4, he's calling $7. I think you had a range that was a lot higher than $4. But you recognized, and if your only mistake is not making enough money, you could be a lot worse.

Hand 2: Take your stand on the turn. He's called on the flop, and you just check the turn? You have to lay the hammer. Or at least give him a check-raise.

Hand 3: The turn is the wrong time to push. Think about pushing on the flop. Youhave a better chance to find out where you stand.

Hand 4: On the river you have to give him credit for a 9 or a king. I'd say it's slightly possible he doesn't have one. But he's playing this whole hand (except preflop) telling us that he has AK. Go ahead and give him credit.

Hand 5: Yea, fold preflop. But since you're in. Seems like you got all you could on the river.

Hand 6: Bet seems almost too big to call on the river. Trust your read and act accordingly.

Hand 7: It appears to me that you got your money in with the best of it. But you have to hate that K on the river.

Hand 8: Looks to me like you gave him the upper hand on the turn, and he kept it on the river. You are probably still ahead (or he hit his miracle card on the river) But you can't slow play these situations or you will give your money away.

Hand 9: Just let it go at the river. Again, you slow play and let someone else win, you deserve to lose that money.

Hand 10: Betting on the flop tells me you probably aren't ahead in this hand. If you ever were it was pre-flop.
