Here's a few I need to work on.

- Betting the river, when the only time you'll get a call, is when you're beat.

- Going for the draw even without the odds, just because you feel it.

- Calling on the flop because of a scary board, in stead of raising to see where you're at. Basically giving a free card.

When to slowplay, i see people all the time giving free cards with 2 suited cards on the flop, with possible straight cards.

Another few

- Being too impulsive (not putting your opponent on a range of hands before making a decision.)

- Not betting the right amount (to achieve what you wanted from your opponent. Did you want him to draw or not?)

Not being aware of what type of opponent you are against. For example don't bluff a calling station or be cautious when in a pot with a rock who raised preflop.

Worrying about the wrong player in a hand. There have been times when I've been seated perfectly, just to the right of the donkey, and I'll be raising his bets on fourth street when out of nowhere the CO or Button raises my raise and I wasn't paying enough attention to know where I'm at. Maybe this is just a rookie mistake, but the other day I lost a few big pots while holding a strong hand not thinking as much about the "other" guy in the pot and I cost myself quite a few BB over the course of an hour or so.
