Default A bluff with purpose

here is the text after

S Hawking: why didnt you show
Scottishben: have it set up to never show
Dealer: Game #2868681249: shmee wins pot (500)

This guy is pretty aggressive in betting and has clearly bluffed a bit and is targeting me. I need to either take him down or hope i get moved table soon.
I don't think he is a fool but he is trying to muscle on me hence this -

I know he very probably doesnt have the flush and i think he probably has nothing or a low pair more likely than anything else from the way he has been playing - top pair at best.

Very dangerous but my read was confident - I wouldn't recommend this kind of play but it toned him down afterwards as well
