Deceptive? Are you serious? I think this is probably the most obvious way to play this hand. If I'm the guy who bet when the third flush car hit the board and you raise me all in, no way am I calling unless I have a full house draw (2 pair or a set) and the right odds to do so.
Yes, the best on the flop is technically a semi-bluff, but that early in the hand, I wouldn't even think of it like that. I think of that more on the turn when there is only one card to come. This bet is just playing aggressively (this is a good thing, of course).
