When you are bluffing, the Turn is extremely important as well. By betting big during the turn if you have been engaging in moderate bets throughout the rest of the game, then your opponents will most likely be suitably intimidated.

You should not go too crazy, but if you really thing that, thanks to the turn, your hand will win the entire game, then you can consider first checking, and then betting madly when the River card is dealt.

Keep in mind, however, that if you have done a check before this point, your opponents may decide to call you because they suspect that you actually are bluffing. So, this should only be done if you really do think you can take the whole shebang with your hand.

Keep in mind, as well, that this strategy actually works quite well if you have been caught in a bluff before — whether accidentally or on purpose.
