Just a routine hand, looking for critiques

Nothing special here, but then, most of my hands are nothing special!! No real reads, only saw 4 or 5 hands before this hand. Looking to improve:

Your playing fine, gotta value bet the river vs 1.

Probably gotta bet the river.

Other than Ax, I don't think a worse hand will call a river bet. Or a better hand will fold. I think it's ok but what do I know.

It's true that you won't push him off of a better hand, and it's true that that his draw may have just come in. However, Villain is calling with a weaker hand often enough to bet the riv for value IMO.

Looks fine to me. You may have lost to a flush, but nothing you could do about that.
