If this is not a crazy player I'd fold. He has to be pretty crazy though, that 8 gave him another way to beat you.

Why are we leading the turn? He is not calling with worse hands here.

I wouldn't bet the turn, and bet more on the flop...

If he calls 3.50, maybe 3.75$, he's very likely to have a Q... Maybe some strange draw, but i don't think so...

Depends on the villain I guess, he didn't bet the pot just about half, it should shut down bluffs from most players and charge the FD if he has one, sure you can check but you have to fold if he bets.

I think leading the turn is fine.

He calls from CO, so his range is pretty wide - including a lot of Qx hands. I'd fold this, because there's another street coming where you can expect to face a $20 bet in most cases. If you're going to fold to that anyway, there's no point in calling now.

Ask yourself this: Will I fold to the river bet if the river blanks? What if the river is a K or A?
