Preflop
In other hands you limped preflop, but this time you raise a very bad hand, when you could have gone for a cheap complete. It seems very random to be honest.

Flop
With bottom pair a small bet or a check is ok.

Turn
If you bet again, you would be turning your hand into a bluff, and its to in between for that, so a check is fine.

River
Now you have two pair and should bet for value. However when he check back turn, he likely has a pretty weak hand, so betting full pot might get him to fold more often, than you want. You want to lay him a price, where at least a Q or a weak K will always call.

i know it's a trashy hand to raise with
but he was a very loose player and I had tight image of showdown hands that i had shown to opponents so I thought it couldn't be a bad idea to semi-bluff here but i actually got the flop so the reason i bet 3/4 in the flop was that i wanted to see what he has, if he would raise i might have fold but when called i knew he has a pair or at least a high card but you're right i shouldn't have bet the whole pot in the river. i should have gave him a good price to call
but when you say:

why does it make my hand a bluff couldn't it be the sign of a value bet and a strong hand i know sometimes we check raise those hands but not always
I'm still new to this bluffing thing and how to bluff right and believable, could you help me out a bit here?
