Party $200nl, river bluff = spew?

[AllIn3High]

Hi, since the last time I played serious poker was back in may of 2006 and I've only since played a couple of thousands hands I've been feeling somewhat rusty (which is why I'm "only" playing $200nl). I'm playing on my laptop so no software aided reads.

The guy sat down a couple of orbits ago and has been playing
fairly tight and somewhat passive from what I've noted. I've been playing TAG and since the table is not all that loose I've been playing lots of hands and winning pots uncontested.

<font color="blue">Him betting into 2 players (including the preflop raiser) normally suggests strength to me, but a bet that weak is usually them pricing themselves in w/ a draw or crappy two pair, TPGK or w/e.

I sometimes raise here, but i figure I'd rather see the turn and play some pokah. Besides are they ever folding a hand on this flop to a raise?

My plan is to hit one of my 3 nut-outs or if that doesn't work out hit one of my pair-draw outs and get a hopefully cheap showdown. Since I don't know if he is on the club draw, I'm maybe gonna represent that.

<font color="blue">Man that's a weak ass bet. I'm pretty sure he doesn't have the flush, I think one pair, two pair or maybe (unlikely) even a set. Besides, I probably picked up some extra outs. So I think this is a fairly standard semi-bluff, no?</font>

<font color="blue">Ugh, not exactly what I was hoping for. And that bet... ugh, I hate giving up here. I mean, does it really look like he has a hand that he can back with his stack? To me it looks like at best two pair that was hoping to boat up on the river, but more likely he has some kind of pair + a [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] and he is hoping he can showdown cheaply. </font>


OK, so that was roughly my thought process during the hand. Now my questions are:

1) Is this ever anything but spew vs. most villains at $200nl? I realize this would probably be better w/ more of a read, but I think the spot looked right.

2) Say instead of that weak-ass bet he checked the river, are we firing again, and how much?
