Well, I would imagine that your table image here is one of a quite conservative player, so really it depends on your read of the other player, and what you hope to do. 9xBB is perhaps too big. The intial raise was 3xBB, so maybe 6xBB would have been better (as you'd have won the hand anyway)... or maybe worse (as he'd be more likely to call the 3xBB raise, and then if the flop didn't improve then really its up to your good bluffing ability combined with the hope that he didn't like the flop too.

That was the other problem - this is the first time I've EVER had that image!!
