Re: Who makes this call?
You priced in a flush draw on the turn. (3:1 with good implied odds)
The thing is a lot of hands would do this that you beat. If he had any set there's no way he'd put you on the flush or straight. If he had top two he'd assume his hand was good also after that turn bet. And the 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] is the best scare card in the deck, so a bluff is possible also.
Flush is most likely though imo. Straight possible, but less so.
You have to be ahead here about 40% of the time to make this profitable. I don't think you are ahead that often, but given the history I'd probably make a crying call and pray he was bluffing.
