Default Call this river with 88?

No reads on anyone.

I'd like to get a concensus on what everyone would do on the river. If you don't like the turn call let me know too.

Cryptologic 1.00/2.00 Hold'em <font color="#0000FF">(10 handed)</font> link

Preflop: Hero is Button with 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
UTG calls, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, Villain calls, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, SB calls, <font color="#666666">1 folds</font>, UTG calls, Villain calls.

Flop: (9.00 SB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">Villain bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, SB folds, UTG folds, Villain calls.

Turn: (6.50 BB) T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Villain checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Villain raises</font>, Hero calls.

Fold the turn. Since you didn't, call the river and hope for a semibluff.

As an aside to the results, if you were consistently playing this aggressively that might be enough read to justify a calldown.

No, what I said before was the truth. Villain (8,8) only had 10 hands at the table and I hadn't played any since he joined. I was playing careful because I didn't want to whiff off any money before I quit. Oops. I only played the 55 because I was going to fold without a set. Damned straight draw sucked me in.

what? this aggressively? the guy simply raised after two limpers with a good hand and raised a very draw happy flop and continued betting a relatively safe turn card.

he should have folded to the turn c/r, but the "real hero" in this hand should not try to bluff against players he doesn't know.

By "aggressively" I think he was referring to my actual turn C/R.

As for not bluffing against unknowns; it was a semi-bluff, thank you. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Yeah, I was actually calling grjr's 55 play aggressive, and saying that Mr. 88's play may have been justified with a read.
