Great advice with the final suggestion, but I have a question about #3.... Are you sure? Maybe this is because you are talking about very low stakes games, but I've been experimenting with just the opposite of this recently. When heads up anyway, I find bluffing at the river can be quite profitable (assuming you've shown strength the whole way). Say the pot is laying you 8:1 or so on your bluff. Even if you get called and lose 80% of the time, you're still coming out ahead. It's also good for your image, as people will start calling you down with junk, causing your value bets to get paid off more.
Again, just something I've been experimenting with. I've kinda been looking at it the same as "call more on the river.... because of the size of the pot, it doesn't need to work all that much to be a profitable play.
