Default I bluff when I feel weakness

Villain is 18/14/3. WTSD 20% No reads.
My initial thought was to set mine, but his flop bet was so small...and I changed my mind. When he called my turn bet I decided to fire again, because his line was so weak... Thoughts?

Seat 1: SB ($35.80)
Seat 3: BB ($203.70)
Seat 5: UTG ($334.05)
Seat 6: UTG+1 ($224.00)
Seat 8: <font color="#C80000">Hero</font> ($200.00)
Seat 10: BTN ($76.00)

SB posts small blind, $1.00; BB posts big blind, $2.00;

Dealing to <font color="#C80000">Hero</font>:

UTG folds; UTG+1 raises to $8; <font color="#C80000">Hero</font> calls; BTN folds; SB folds; BB folds;

Dealing flop: (Pot is $19.00)

If this guy is calling the turn he's not folding the river when a 3 comes off. It's usually QQ/JJ that just won't believe you.

Yeah I agree, if he's calling turn he's probably not folding a blank river.

I agree, exactly, if he called your bet on the turn and the river blanks, what makes you think he's going to fold. Its not like the board is terribly drawy.

His flop bet is also around 2/3rds. I'd not view that as particularly weak. The board isn't draw heavy so he could very well make that with TPGK+

Turn is a diamond. He may have FD with an over. And do you think a 18/14 will call 2 streets with an underpair?

Yeah, the flop bet is smallish, but not that small. If I want to test him out I'm raising the flop.

I really don't know how you can just peg him for a diamond draw vs his whole range which is KJ/KQ/QQ/JJ/tens,etc. that just won't fold.

If you're going to double or triple-barrel 22 when you miss a set then you'll bust your bankroll very very quickly.

If you think he had a flush draw like AQ/AJ/A10 diamonds or a hand like A6 for an over and a straight draw you have showdown value.
