Is the second sentence correct? If so, why do we choose one or another of these collocations for “though”?
- I like him. Though he makes me angry sometimes.
- I like him. He makes me angry sometimes, though.

"Though" and "although" are tricky words. I think "although" is better in this case and probably generally, although (!) I can't explain why.
There are other ways to express this particular idea, all of which I prefer:
I like him but sometimes he makes me angry.
I like him although sometimes he makes me angry.
I like him even though he sometimes makes me angry.
I like him; nonetheless, he sometimes makes me angry.
While he sometimes makes me angry, I like him nonetheless.
This is probably not much help (although the price is pretty good)!
