I think that in spite of the good odds we had preflop, calling these off-suited connectors is kinda strange. If it was 98s it would be better for both calling and 3-betting preflop. We must consider the rake structure every time we decide to call a hand preflop. 
On the flop we have just a gutshot, so our line here is check-raise and pray for villain to fold. Besides, villain bets almost 100% of the size of the pot, which turns our bluffing and value hands not so good. 
On the turn completes a flush and we elect to raise having no combos of clubs: one point is that if we are bluffing hands like this one (gutshots with off-suited connectors) we are bluffing a great range of hands, having much more bluffs than values on our range, turning our reading easy, for we are way out of line (unbalanced). 
After villain calls we must expect some strong hand. When we shove river we are giving excellent odds for villain to call with many hands that have us beat and fold only the trash hands.
