Re: Is this a great spot to semi-bluff?
I don't think you're deep enough to call this raise preflop. This is a clear fold preflop. Maybe if you had position and 1 or 2 other preflop callers before you, I could see investing almost 10% of your money preflop.
With that being said, this is a decent flop for you. I would either check-raise all-in or if villian is more advanced I might just check-raise heavy (so he doesn't think I'm drawing) and obviously if he moved all-in, I'd call.
Ultimately, I think you're putting yourself in murky situations by calling this preflop and having to make tough decisions out of position.....you want your opponents to have to make tough decisions, not the other way around.
