One problem I feel like happens a lot is that when I bet people go over the top and I fold, when they bet and I go over the top they call... although this is usually pre flop. I will try it. Do you bet any textured flop since there was no pf raising?

It depends on the opponent, stack sizes, blinds, the presence of a short stack, etc. But in your 79o post, I think against a typical opponent on the lower levels, a call followed by a mini-bet (200) will take down most pots. They're just playing survival much of the time (as they should be, that's the point). If the flop bet is called, give it up. Often, they'll be too afraid to bet the turn anyway, and you might back into the better hand by the end anyway. I'm just sayin' that it's better than pushing in the example that you gave. The whole risk / reward thing is way skewed when you push there.
