... However, I've found that min-raising against a Thinking/Good player can often be a good bluff. It just looks too suspicious (almost begging a call) and definitely does not look like a bluff. ...

A minimum raise, to me, signifies the exact opposite of a begging call. I look at it as a scared beginner move trying to find out who's got the goods. Many seem to fold to the min raise, but I find that with the enormous pot odds involved, I have to call with any kind of draw. And I do; I almost never reraise in this situation, electing to get to my hand cheap. I'll simply call 'em down until I've missed my draw.
