I'm not keen on the way you played the first one. If you check-raise the flop, you really need to be betting out the turn, or giving it up if you don't fancy it. A bluff on the river is often going to be called in this spot, especially with the two diamonds on the flop.

With the second one, I'd consider repopping preflop, but that depends on your notes on him. On the flop, I think you need to be reraising the flop. You have position, but the turn card is likely to be dangerous and you have little information regarding your opponents hand. Reraising will take control of the pot, rather than leaving you guessing further down the streets.

Just give up the third hand early doors, you're swimming without a paddle.

i'd b/3b the flop in first one, it kinda reps mad strength but it makes your decision easier on the turn/river.  as played i'd fire the turn for sure after its checked to you (it was right? hand converters tough to read)

hand 2 i'd cbet way more.  wtf was that bet srsly.  as played i think turn is fine but river is bad in a vacuum.  HU poker depends a shit ton on flow and history which you've given none really.  in some spots calling is fine like it probably was here

hand 3 i'd fold or 3b/fold the flop.  most likely fold to his raise.  i doubt most NL20 players are raising reasonably wet flops too light

hand 4 is again a fold in a vacuum but if hes tilting its the easiest call ever.  seriously, you havent given us anywhere near enough information

Thanks for the feedback guys, the guy was very loose and aggressive calling a lot from the BB, i definitely agree with the first hand i should be betting the turn a lot more, at the time i felt as though he had over cards with the flush draw as this was the first time he had c/r me on the flop.

As for the second hand the river was a real action killer but a lot of the time i felt as though he was gona have a lot of middle pair hands and busted flush draws etc.

I agree with snoopy on the third hand i should find out where I am on the flop instead of fishing on the turn, played that hand poorly.

As for the last hand the guy was tilting a lot and overplaying a lot of marginal hands, like Rupert said it was an easy call for me as i know i'm gona be shown a lot of ace rags and Broadway cards.

Its easy to see how mistakes like these can affect ur profit/winrate etc esp when playing heads up, thanks for comments

hand 1, get it in on flop while ur equity is through the roof.

hand 2, turn is a safe card to barrel so probs bet to get some value there. River, wp, ur hand is now bluffcatcher so c/c as you did.

hands 3, probs prefer c/r to donk lead. But whatever,  if u donk lead, when he raises fold because board is horrible and you will find it hard to make hero calldowns on such a scary board. Obv ur hand is good a huge chunk of the time but v this guy it will be tough.

hand 4, well played, 50p please.
