Do y'all think this is a good spot to be bluffing? This seemed pretty simple to me but I'm not doing so well at 10NL so I'm looking to review fundamentals. Thanks!

CBET on the flop is ok as you have outs still and you have fold equity. On the turn I would check as villain showed interest in this flop. The extra 8 is not a good bluff card an A or K or a card that completes possible straights (e.g. a 5) would be a much better bluff card.

As you don't have enough information (is the villain likely to fold against a second barrel?) and your hand only has 8 outs and you don't know if they are any good would try to get a cheap extra card by checking on the turn.
