Weird 88 hand

I get caught up in these situations a decent amount. Limp with a medium pocket pair, raise behind, flop comes all non-face cards and I bet out. Just checking my line here.

MP3 is weak passive, he won't raise PF and has a .8 AF
CO is 23/12/1.2 not solid, but not terrible.

Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
UTG folds, Hero calls, UTG+2 calls, MP1 folds, MP2 folds, MP3 calls, CO raises, Button folds, SB folds, BB calls, Hero calls, UTG+2 calls, MP3 calls.

Flop: (10.50 SB) 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (5 players)
BB checks, Hero bets, UTG+2 calls, MP3 calls, CO calls, BB calls.

Turn: (7.75 BB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (5 players)
BB checks, Hero bets, UTG+2 folds, MP3 calls, CO calls, BB folds.

River: (10.75 BB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (3 players)
Hero bets, MP3 calls, CO calls.

Final Pot: 13.75 BB

Think you take this pot 50+% at the river? I'm not sure, but I think I'll check/call the river.

MP3 had QQ, CO had KK.

If you're going to call one, the better line is to bet/fold.
