88 playing against no overcards

The pot is small, and the straight draw is low, making it less likely. A raise here offers poor odds even to people calling one bet. Raising now is good.

Def. raise preflop.

I wasn't advocating not raising the flop, I was merely stating an argument could be made for waiting for the turn (and for a different reason than the OP stated). Personally, I raise this flop all day.
