Check raise is fine for me, but can be a little bigger, defently bet bigger on turn i think, and i agree that river is a horrid card for you to bluff at because if hes good on turn then hes still good and never folding.
I dont see the relevence in tripple range merging during this hand TBH, i always though a tripple range merge, was a uber thin value bet designed to polarize your range as nuts or air, so you get paid off by a bluff catcher?

yep i scratched my head at the title. mporter a range merge is when u bet on the river with a medium strength hand and your opponent calls with a bluffcatcher type hand thinking u either have the nuts or air....
range merging is about taking advantage of players who are trying to catch you out when they think you are bluffing..

Yea I have little knowledge of range merging. I had just watched the latest episode of The Micro"s before posting this, so got a little carried away. Range merging is probably a few levels above the small stakes stuff that I am playing anyway.

Also was playing my button aggressively as is standard ? raising 80% and folding the rest.

Why?

I have not played a lot of heads up but have a basic strategy that seems to work OK against most players when I do get in a heads up situation. Very basically being aggressive from the button, I don"t do a whole lot of limping in full ring games so not going to start when heads up. Probably need to start adapting this against different players though.
