Default Re: 88 overpair w/excessive pre and postflop action

I think just calling would be disastrous. 1st of all, How would I proceed on turn and river. I think if I am going to stay in the hand I need to define it right away. There are two questions that need to be answered before the bet gets big.

1st-What did sb 3-bet preflop and check flop w/? I would expect him to bet this raggedty flop about 80% of the time after a preflop 3-bet, another 15% I would expect him to cr me since I was original raiser and am in position, this would normally be a good play w/ a board like this no matter what he has because he should expect it to get checked around to me a good percentage of the time.

2nd-wtf does bb have? I describe him as being tight-abc. He calls 2 more bets preflop out of bb and bets into the field on the flop. I am very scared of what he might have.

More thoughts...I do not have 8 of clubs, so I am effectively drawing to 1 out if I am behind. Worse many cards could come that would keep me in the pot on turn even when I am drawing near dead.
