Stanners From the Ground Up is a good start...Other than that as many as you can and listen to what they're saying about different spots really carefully. A 45 minute video might take 90 minutes to watch with stopping/starting/rewinding etc.

Haha - I read yours and it made me think of that!

Incorporate it into your study time when in Micros and increase per stake but primarily focus on learning the theory inside out. (What I was advised)

You know there are bots galore on this site right?

Yes he would 3bet AK,KK all of the time. That's just my results oriented thinking at play during the analysis!

Apologies in advance about the hand format - RIO wouldn't let me post it as a hand history.
In posting this hand I'm looking for two things really:
1) Is my line okay?
2) Is my analysis accurate?
4NL (6 max) - Holdem - 5 players
Hand converted by Holdem Manager : http://www.holdemmanager.com
UTG: €1.52 (38 bb) Hero (CO): €4.00 (100 bb) BTN: €4.87 (121.8 bb) SB:
€3.95 (98.8 bb) BB: €8.25 (206.3 bb)SB posts €0.02, BB posts €0.04
Pre Flop: (pot: €0.06) Hero has 4h 5h fold, Hero raises to €0.10, 2
folds, BB calls €0.06
Villain is a 29/20 reg so moderately passive. He flats in BB so range is likely PPs, Broadways, SCs
Flop: (€0.22, 2 players) 6h 5s 5c BB checks, Hero bets €0.12, BB calls
€0.12
Because of the low cards on board, villain will probably call overcards, higher PPs and straight draws possibly BDFDs.
Turn: (€0.46, 2 players) Kh
BB bets €0.23, Hero raises to €1.15, BB calls €0.92
This turn card gives potential flush draws outs and gives me a low flush draw and I'm blocking his potential flushes. He donks into me at half pot. So his range here is likely to be Kx, flush draws, and full houses.
River: (€2.76, 2 players) 8d
BB bets €1.38, Hero raises to €2.63, BB calls €1.25
Some gutshot straights have got there however they are unlikely (97.) The flush isn't made and I'm crushed by full houses anyway. I'm more leaning towards Kx.
EDIT: After posting I figured that I'm beaten by about 42 combos (Higher 5X, 66, KK, 88) but I also beat around 42 combos (AK, KQ, K8, K6)
How would I translate knowing these combinatorics into making decisions in spots like this?

What is the purpose of this?

All of the following assumes I've just sat down at a new table.
All hands are BB (Hero) vs BTN open.
I am playing a range practise game and it tells me the following.
Raising A9s is wrong.
Raising QTs is wrong.
Folding 87s is wrong.
Calling 65s is wrong.
Calling AQs is wrong. Instead it says I should have folded.
The other ones seem okay, but the last one doesn't make sense. How can it suggest I fold AQs in the BB vs a BTN opening range?
Stars doesn't have 0% RB
