Thanks for the comments. I called his raise and he showed J8 off. The guy was very loose passive and when he check raised on the river I was about 80% sure I was beat but figured it was a mistake to fold since I was getting just better than 8:1.

These tables where I play are consistantly loose passive and my general strategy is to raise when entering and keep firing when I feel I have the best hand. It is rare for a pot to be capped preflop or one any other street and generally when someone raises me they have me beat.
