You have GOT to fold preflop when it's two bets back to you.

Flop and turn are good, but BB is definitely playing like he's got a set. In fact, the only hand I could see you possibly being ahead of is AJ, which is pretty unlikely given the preflop action. Still, getting 28:1, I think you have to make a crying call on the river. There's probably a really tiny chance he's got some bizarre holding here.
