PAHUD says villain is a bit LAGish (65/13/4) but I only have 23 hands on him so this question is more about what to do vs an unknown...

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.05/$0.10
8 players

Pre-flop: (8 players) Hero is MP1 with A/images/graemlins/spade.gif A/images/graemlins/diamond.gif
2 folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $0.4</font>, 4 folds, BB calls.

Flop: 5/images/graemlins/heart.gif 7/images/graemlins/diamond.gif 2/images/graemlins/spade.gif ($0.85, 2 players)
BB checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets $0.3</font>, BB calls.

Turn: Q/images/graemlins/diamond.gif ($1.45, 2 players)
BB checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets $1</font>, BB calls.

River: 8/images/graemlins/diamond.gif ($3.45, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">BB is all-in $1.7</font>, Hero???.

Comments on all streets welcome but especially the river. How often is a single overpair good here vs the donkbet? Good enough to call down or is this spewing with just a pair?

I would call, but I think your bet on the flop is to small.

Bet more on flop and turn. As played, there's no way I'm folding AA to a short stack LAG with &lt;40 BB getting 3-1 on the river.

Im probably going to call this river bet. If Im looking at it right your getting 3:1 pot odds and our opponent seems to be unpredictable.

Id bet more on the flop. (3/4 pot)

My thoughts are probably not correct so wait for the others who will know to chime in. I just wanted to participate in this interesting hand.

You should include stack sizes, although it is pretty clear here what BB had.

Bet around .65 to pot size on the flop, depending on what you would c-bet here with for example AK.

I would pot it on the turn. Make it clear to him that you have a hand.

Either way I would call with the pot odds on the river. This needs to be a bluff on the scare card (or any Q) only very few times to make this profitable.
