Strongly disagree here. Check/raises make a lot of money on the lower stakes, because people tend to call them even if they know better. Don't EVER use them as bluffs however. In general people can't stop themselves from calling them.
Passive player love to check behind. Actually wait.. ok check raises in the right spots are ok. I just realised that there is loads of cash available from check raising people with overpairs and TP on the turn when you have a set.

6) Basically you are set hunting. Live with it, it makes money.
Maybe this applies to FR? In SH this is not true at all.. nearly zero of my profit is from sets. I've had long term real bad luck with sets personally, and I'm running at high winrates nonetheless.
I'm talking FR here. I don't believe beginners should start off on short handed tables.

7) If you have less then or equal to TPTK and you get raised you should fold, always.
There are very profitable exceptions here. But it depends on reads. Some people like to push draws. Calling them with TPTK is very +EV, ie makes you good money.
See my post about exceptions above.
