I continue to bluff although I get pretty poor results. Will I get villain to fold enough in the following hand to make this bluff +EV? If not, when do I give this up? On the flop? Once I started the bluff (semi-bluff really on the flop with backdoor straight) I didn't want to back out. Hard to get people off their hand...

He's never going to believe you when the 3rd 3 hits. Just give up. (Not that J4o is worth bluffing with in the 1st place. You don't need to get involved in this sort of nonsense.)

These tiny pots are really not worth pursuing. I am even check-folding Ax on this flop, even if that makes me exploitable.
