    Default 4 hands same oponent and session - could I have done better?

    Ok, some bad beats in here, but my question is if I could have played differently against this oponent? Given that these 4 hands came in this order (with other hands in between though) in the same session, so I gain a read after each hand. And how should I play him in the future?

    hand 1: standard. i'd bet a little more on the flop.
    hand 2: raising preflop is probably more +EV. post flop is standard.
    hand 3: river raise is spew.
    hand 4: top up. looks fine.

    So you have learnt that villain can't play. Only thing I can see is raise pre-flop hand 2, but I imagine result would've been the same. Hand 3- Don't reraise the river, this looks tilty. find him again

    Hand 3 is a great way to win the least and lose the max.

    Pay more attention at the table and don't put the second bet in on that river.

    Bet/Fold
    Bet/Call-some-raises
    check/call-most-bets

    Are all far better lines depending on how aggressive and post-flop-loose your opponent is.
