The flop came 9 high with one spade.

I bet, BB called, and as predicted the button folded.

I bluffed the turn, BB called. We checked down the river. He had a 9 for a pair.

I'm less concerned about analyzing the post-flop play because the button folded which I had predicted. The surprise was the BB and that's why the question about the play pre-flop.

The main question which maybe I didn't state clearly was, should I try that play pre-flop with a hand like 8Ts?

At the time I was thinking about how if I call, I'm pretty weak tight post-flop and I won't know where I stand unless I flop an OK draw with a pair, something like two more spades and an 8. I'm pretty sure I'm not supposed to fold this hand from the SB in this situation, but maybe I am. I thought given previous action that I had at least a reasonable chance of stealing a small pot on the flop if things went my way, meaning BB folds pre-flop and the button folds to a bet on the flop.

Perhaps I'm thinking too hard for this limit. I want to improve my game.

Thanks for your help.
