Default bluff on a river 4 straight

I've been playing this guy on a couple tables for a while. He's kinda nitty and I've been pressuring him a lot. He's looked me up with top pair type hands a couple times when I've 3 barreled and seen me with a rivered flush. Earlier I potted a 2345 (two club) board (with A10) on the turn and folded to his small checkraise, I'm pretty sure he thought I was bluffing. This hand I'm certain he checkraises the flop with a flush draw 100%. I'm pretty sure he has a straight here, do I have enough chips for my bluff to work frequently?

if he's looking you up light and frustrated from getting flushed before, pretty sure he's showing you a straight here. or even without the above assumptions, im pretty sure a straight is almost never folding here if he knows you to be capable of any moves at all.

Different guy from the other hand. I'm pretty sure all the FTP hu regulars post here so he can identify himself if he wants. Do you guys like it more if I have $500-600?

I normally like lines like this, cause you look strong as hell, but you won't fold a straight and he has a flush here pretty often too, so right there the play falls flat on its heels because of the board. I respect the play though.
