Re: Interesting (to me) 88 hand
pre-flop -- i'd consider a reraise after button raises. if button is playing a strong Ace or KQ, you'd love to go heads up with some dead money in the pot. Try putting pressure on the two limpers to cold-call two. One or both may drop, which would be very nice for you. If they don't, you're playing this for set value or extreme undercards, but that's not so bad either.
flop -- I'd expect a c/r to work here, too. It's surprising that the preflop raiser doesn't automatically make continuation bets. Make a note of it, that's useful knowledge going forward.
turn -- nice bet; nice outcome
flop -- looks good. hope he had k6 or some such and just wanted to keep giving you chips.
