I am vey new to NL HE and generally relatively new to poker. Because I am new to NL I like to bet strong and not give my opponents chances for some tricky play. Maybe this is not the right way or I just didn't do it the right way. Any comments are welcome. I have a lot to learn.

What's the question here? You pushed the river and he called. Isn't that what we want?

Also, if I'm reading this correctly, you have only a stack of 2.95? You need to re-buy and get a full stack.

I'm sorry. The questions should be: Would you play this hand differently? Would you say there are some definite mistakes on my side in this hand? (besides the stack)
