Default I turn a made hand into a bluff

Not too many hands on villain. He seems tightish over the hands I have with him, he'll prob turn out to be an 18/14 type. I have a 20/15 image and I have been playing in line more or less at this table. I call the flop because he's c-betting a lot of hands, raising is an option but I think calling is ok here. On the turn I think he's second barreling or b/f'ing a K or high pair a lot of the time. I feel like Tx will be a pretty small part of this guy's range given his tightness.

So I raise the turn to rep a T and get him to fold his Kx, broadways, high pair, whatever. Thoughts?

Full Tilt Poker, $1/$2 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 4 Players
LeggoPoker Hand History Converter

UTG: $402.85
Hero (BTN): $215.45
SB: $204
BB: $244

Pre-Flop: 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (BTN)
<font color="red">UTG raises to $7</font>, Hero calls $7, 2 folds

Flop: ($17) T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">UTG bets $14</font>, Hero calls $14

Turn: ($45) 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">UTG bets $30</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to $80</font>

3-betting pf has some merits as well but I don't think it's that big a deal given I have position.

Nice, particularly if he's second-barreling more than you think he should be, and especially if you think he'd check turn to trap or c/r with Tx (which I think a lot of TAGs would consider).

good spot because if he continues anything he does is stack committing

I like it for sure. I'd raise to a lil more though 90-95. Does this make any difference at all?

Do you guys all agree that 80 is a good raise amount?
