This happens a lot at 200NL...
When I raise preflop and the flop comes high cards I will get bluffed at after my continuation bet on the flop. How do you deal with hands like these? Just limp preflop? I think its weak but it keeps the pot smaller with my marginal holdings.
Probably a bad call, but his minraise was weak and I thought I had the implied odds to continue. Turns out I had the best hand the whole time.

Went on a little tilt and this hand came up later. My read was on sort of, but I only had a 5% advantage and ended up losing.

I really don't think my ten kicker was good enough to continue, but this guy could easily have thought I was bluffing and have some sort of low pp or a jack with a lower kicker as he was in the blinds. Good fold?
