So does everyone think I can make more of a long term profit in Hand 1 by betting the flop or would it be for metagame considerations? While I agree that the whole WA/WB idea is overused and not necessarily appropriate for HU play, I just couldn't see profiting from a flop bet.

I'm still having trouble finding a line in hand 2. I don't like betting the river. I don't like my chances of pushing off an ace here. Everything the Villain has done suggests he's heading to showdown. So maybe check/folding is the right line, although I feel like this might make the Villain think I'll fold easily. Does anybody else have an opinion of hand 2?
