Default 88 -- Bet the damn river?

This table was full when I joined it, but then people began leaving one after another, and by the time the big blind got back to me I was also the Button and playing heads-up.

I didn't know my opponent very well, though I had played at 3/6 full with him before, where his stats were 9/6/2.75 (but after only 54 hands). Heads-up against me at 5/10, he wasn't as tight, and his numbers for the session were 33/24/4.25 for 42 hands.

Anyway, while I was playing this hand, I told myself I should bet the river. But then I didn't. And I'm wondering what you think.

I'm also kind of wondering what kind of hand range my play up until the river represented. (Prior to last night, I had never played heads-up at 5/10 before.)
