Let me start off by recognizing that my preflop call with 8-8 was probably poor given that the pot was small. I probably should have either raised or folded preflop. My focus is on the river. I think I should have raised on the river. Let me know what y'all think:

I only called here, fearing that either BB or LP had Kings full of Tens or perhaps quad Kings. In hindsight, I'm thinking I should have raised, and if BB 3-bet, I would just call. Thoughts? Below in white are what BB and LP had:
