Please fix your post so we know what happened.

Fixed. Sry bout that.

I jammed a reraise all in and he folded. Having regrets now.

No draws out here, your hand is either beating him by a mile or needs massive help to win.

I would min raise the turn. Probably get the same result as what you did, but there is a better chance that he will call. You got most of your money in there in any case.

I think your reraise on turn is fine. He probably had QQ or JJ and its debateble whether he would have bluffed again on the river so I think you milked all you can out of him.

I highly doubt that you are behind in this hand and need massive help (raising in MP w/ 88s? or 44s?), but I do agree that a min raise is best play, but he'll still fold.

You got the max u could from the hand. If u had just called, then a check on the river would certainly made him check as well. YOur only option to milk something more, would be a small bet on the river, and then maybe he would call a little more. The correct play tough seems to be the turn reraise.
