Christ, if you're going to semi-bluff, do it like a man.

$9 on the flop.

$20 on the turn.

Raise the river.

BB had $20 behind on the river

i doubt he's folding

Yikes, good point, didn't notice that. He probably has QQ and value called the nuts on the turn. Either way, I think that if you're going to semi-bluff, you should bet more on the flop.

And actually, I changed my mind about the turn. Don't bet it at all. You don't have any more fold equity there than anywhere else.

oh i thought we were raising the river for value. you don't put him on K high?

He did get 6 extra outs on the turn, gave him a total of 18. Two people were calling his bets, so why would he want them to fold? He was getting the right odds for them to call. I think 2/3 pot bet on the flop and turn is fine. Too bad you didn't hit.

I'd pot the flop and check the turn with the intention of checkraising all-in assuming button bets and BBcalls. don't get much better than OESD and NFD.
if it checks through, i'd checkfold if i didn't improve given that there's two players.
