Heh, you changed your post so I'll respond to some of your other comments:

So as played (with bigger bets from me) i should have realised i'm behind???
[/ QUOTE ]As played, you really have committed yourself to the pot. You are getting almost 3 to 1 on your call, which means you only have to be good 25% of the time to making calling profitable. I don't think any tell of "CRAI on the turn is not a bluff or AQ" is strong enough to fold getting those kinds of odds. But you should realize when you make that turn bet that you are not folding.

Also if a fulsh draw was on board would you then need to bet more in line with what I did?
[/ QUOTE ]A flush draw changes the dynamic, but a lot depends on villain's tendencies. It's not a simple answer. Your line MIGHT be more appropriate or even optimal on such a board if you've seen him call big bets with draws and not slow play his sets on draw heavy boards. If he is the kind to slow play his sets no matter what the board, you still may play a little more reserved.
A more draw heavy board makes your decisions more complicated.
