Good bluff with a good read

[PokerPatNEU]

Marcuss had been picking on mdrow kinda for the last few orbits after he was sucked out on in a big pot. Mdrow was kinda a fish, bet weak a lot and would fold to reraises, etc...I put Marcuss on a decent hand (Ax or so) but nothing spectacular, as he just liked to play a lot of hands with Mdrow since he was in position and could outplay him. Marcuss is a solid player and i knew he was capable of this laydown based on his chat with another player at his table that told me he knew what he was doing. My image at the table was tight (>20% of flops). Marcuss was LAG.

Marccus85: raises $4 to $5.50<----he smells the weak fish too, what are his holdings? I think A4-AT is reasonable, or a total bluff

Nice play. He really can't call that raise. He was hoping to pair his Q or K when he called the turn.
