25NL - What do I do with 88?

[hummusx]

Alright, this guy was 70/30 or so, although to be fair he hadn't been at the table long. The hand prior to this I stacked him with JJ. He called my 3-bet cold for $3.75 PF with Q9s, then pushed over my large flop bet with his 4-flush. Here's the next hand:

Is this reasonable given the history above, or did I massively overplay my hand?

check/fold flop. If your going to bet, make it bigger. Check fold turn. Man this is really gross, due to history I would think its extremely unlikely he's bluffing because you JUST showed up with the goods and have no reason for tilting.

edit: I mean think about it, if your a terrible player, and everytime you get stacked you immediately play a hand with the guy who just stacked you, and go all in again with nothing, how quickly are you gunna be outta cash? Unless he's noticibly tilting in a lot of hands I think this is really bad. And by noticibly I mean he's going all in a lot, not just playing 70/30 and raising or floating.

I guess I had the opposite impression. He had been shoving people around and I figured him for being extra pushy on this hand. What do you put him on that I'm scared of?

I don't try to put downies on hands, I just look at the absolute value of my hand and decide if its better than most good hands that downie goes all in with. With JJ+ and AQ/KQ I go broke here, but with your hand no I don't. He has to prove big downie to me first.

Its impossible to read a guy who plays 70/30's hands unless he's doing something blatantly obvious (had to cover my tracks here cuz I 4bet bluffed a downie on an ace high board lol).....
