I can't work out where I should have raised here,I felt that if I showed any kind of strength then I'm going to scare him off,better to just let him continue to bluff rather than me making a bet that isn't going to get called by a worse hand.

lol what are u talking? He is the only one that really shows strength in this hand, raise him on the turn.

Why for crying out loud did you just call the river?
