Don't tell me he just made quads...

I'm not really the hero in this hand, but I was amazed when he showed 88 at the showdown. I probably would bet and call a raise on the river. Do you agree? Would you 3-bet?

I would definitely c/r the flop, not wait until the turn.

EDIT: Oh, the river. Easy bet and call the raise. If he has some goofy two-pair or straight draw with a 4 (which is the only hand I can see him leading the flop with), so be it.
