I've recently started to pay more attention to villains' reactions on cbets (fold, call, and raise cbets).
Now, if villain folds 50% or more, it's straight-forward.
But how do you handle these types of villains (OOP and in position):
a) raises cbets often (30%, 50%, or even 70%)
b) calls cbets very often (50%+)
Are there any general strategies against these guys or does this depend a lot on other reads? I seem to make my biggest mistakes in HU situations against these types.

haha, well first of all, you can destroy those strategies by picking up cards.
Lets talk real quick about both of those types of guys:
The guy who raises a lot: does he continue on the turn a lot? So often he probably doesnt have a great hand? is he a thinking player or a calling station? If he bets on the turn and isn't a station, I am likely to have a really big range for turn c/rai.
The guy who calls a lot: Second barrel when the board is right for it, c/c when I think he's floating and I've got an average hand, c/r when I think he's floating and I've got a big hand/big draw.
Your questions are very player dependent, just remember that aggression wins in the end, but you can manipulate your opponents aggression into giving you money through your own carefully chosen bets and raises.
