You need to bet and raise more on the flop. 2.5-3 is better here. You need to be more agressive on the river as well. should be closer to 2. Like 1.8 is good.

This sparked my interest a little bit. My AF numbers by street are
Flop - 3.68
Turn - 2.52
River - 1.46

Total - 2.67

Does that seem out of line? FWIW I'm 26/20

Flop AF does seem out of line to me. High flop aggression can hurt you as you move up limits IMO. As you face more aggressive opposition, it's often better to be more passive in general and on the flop in particular. At 5/10 and 10/20, you face people that are more willing to put in bets on multiple streets with air, semi bluffs, and SP type hands. The proper counter strategy is to take more passive lines when you unsure of whether you have the best hand and wait for the turn or river to raise when you confident in your hand to extract the most from marginal hands and air. At lower limits against more passive players or even in FR games, you can save bets by "raising for information" or otherwise taking a line that allows you to fold when beat without seeing your opponents cards. At higher limits, you can't trust your opponents bets and raises to that extent. Therefore, you have to take more lines that allow you to SD. A high flop aggression factor can also mean that your not peeling enough flops. This is something I struggle with. In general, I think becoming more passive is one of the hardest things that a player needs to do in there transition to high stakes because it requires good read based play.
