Need feedback on calling with a scary board

[Aximillian]

Well, he did indeed have only KT and I took the pot. I realize that I got lucky. But I also said that I've seen this guy bet into pots with nothing. Luckily my impression was right this time. I can see how this was a bad hand to play loose on, since there were so many other hands that could beat me. I'm also thinking that a bluff raise on either the flop or the turn would have probably been a better play for me, since my hand was so weak against the board. Then if I ended up winning right there, my image wouldn't have been effected.

If you bluff raise the turn, you are committing a lot of money on the off chance that nobody can beat you. I think you have to bluff raise the flop or fold it and move on.

Yea, that's more of what I was thinking. Thanks

Then you should have raised the flop and folded to a re-raise.
