Default Re: 25NL: 88 on paired board

I would just fold to the flop bet (because of the king, basically). Calling and seeing if he bets again on the turn is another possibility, but, like I said, that king is troublesome.

The flop raise does have the potential benefit of pushing Villain off of, say, QQ, but if I raised, after Villain called I would basically give up and accept my fate. He's probably got a K.

As played, I guess you might as well call the turn checkraise for that additional $2.70 and hope your unknown Villain was spewing (and that you have him beat) or that you catch a miracle 8 on the river.
