J9? T8? KXs? AK? KQ? I'm admittedly bad about folding hands on the river, but this doesn't seem like a good candidate. Though, he seems passive, you don't have a lot of stats on him and you have top pair.

I'd call out of curiosity, even if we're never good. But I'm the showdown king- I think especially with few hands on him...let's see what he's got.

I fold here. You can only beat a bluff and there is so much that beats you. This is one of my "fold, but I am keeping an eye on you" type hands. I would watch him carefully after this to see how often he is raising the turn or river and with what.

this looks like a good river fold.

standard. the 8 is not a scare card.

Tough fold here, how big does the pot need to be before making this call? 5.5bb is pretty small obviously.

i don't see how this is tough.
the pot is small, the villain is on the passive side, and the 8 is not an obvious card to bluff on.
if hero wasn't being trapped the whole way, villain just made a ragged two pair.

Re: I fold top pair on the river
 
I've seen more than one dingbat raising a big street with TP very crappy kicker. Without a read, I call this the first time to see is Villian is one of them. Chances are your fold was OK though, especially if you haven't seen him doing anything whacky yet,
