weak raise, i have mediocre holdings, only $2 more for me to see a flop.

i think implied odds justify it..

no, you have crap holdings. fold preflop. i can see a play similar to this with a suited connector/gapper, but two spaced offsuit isn't worth it. and, though the bluff did work, i think in the long run bluffs like this are -EV unless you have some sortof read on the guy.
i betcha that i got something you ain't got, that's called courage, it don't come from no liquor bottle, it ain't scotch
