Could I have induced a bluff/raise here with small bets?

Thoughts?

I don’t think your bets are that small at all and we have on the river only a bluff catcher and without reads I would most likely fold. I don’t think he would change an weaker ace in to a bluff and he could have AQ and KJ in his range.

Yeah, QT, QJ, AQ, KQ, KJ, around there I think.

Actually your bet OTR is thin. Must be smaller. He can fold Ax sometime. Who knows? Some people will do that. Also some people will turn to bluff hands, like JT, KT, even Ax, but this is already too crazy. But possible. 7bb. That's it. Don't be so greedy.

OTF-T enough, OTR 7bb, as I said or smaller. You will induce a bluff with big bet OTR, not with small.

I was thinking that the kicker plays on river thus I increased the bet size by 2BB.
