How do i think about my c-bet decisions in HU pots ? In many pots (mostly out of position) i seem to get a lot of problems when i c-bet.

The reason why i didnt c-bet this hand was that i thought it likely that he had an A2xx hand, that he might call on the flop, and i didnt draw to any nuts (except for backdoor flush and 4 out nut lot).

When i get a flushdraw on the turn, i decide to call . Are my chanses good enough to do that ?
What is my plan then on the river ?
My main plan was call if i hit flush, raise if i hit flush with nut low, and raise if i hit any nut low. Do i have more options ?

it really depends on the villains. is he really tight or loose? does he call a lot oop, does he c/r a lot. every situation is unique and i cant say if you should cbet this particular hand or not without knowing villain ;)

Villain's range on the turn is a straight, a full house, just trips with draw or possibly just a flush draw with low draw. Everything beats you on the river and folding is fine here.

Once you check back this flop your hand is extremely polarized to weak holdings so villain can confidently bet the turn with his strong and medium strength hands. I think it's fine to keep him honest here but nothing but a river fold can happen.

As for the flop against passive opponents I prefer betting the flop then checking back the turn as they wont checkraise without a strong hand.
