Default River boat any good?

I decided to post this b/c I was so confused during the hand that probably misplayed it. I am mostly interested on what you put my opponents in adddition to rating my play.

Villain is a so-so player. He plays too loose post flop (calling with small pair with way insufficient odds to turn a full house), and mainly plays his cards only. However, he can get away from the hand when its clear he is beat (folding Aces multiway to 7-8-9-10 board) and plays VERY tight preflop. He loves to donk the flop if got a piece of the board but would slowplay a big hand.

Live 20-40 just became 8 handed with 2 walkers.
A mediocre player open raises in MP. 2 folds to Hero who decides to just call on the button w 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Villain in SB calls and so does a horrible player in BB.
The flop is nice but drawy 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. Its checked around to hero who bets. SB raises and BB 3 towns. PFR calls 3 cold (!!). Hero just calls. BB calls.
The turn is an A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. SB checks. BB checks (???). PFR wakes up and bets (???). At this point hero is thoroughly confused but doesn't belive that PFR checked the flop with Aces. Hero raises and everybody calls.
The river is A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Now SB wakes up and bets. BB folds after some deliberation and so does BB. Hero...?

This is a cracked out hand. I assume the PFR folded on the river as well. I hope you are not considering folding this. I lean toward raising this because SB could very well have AdXs. He played this a lot like he had the naked Ad.

Edited for spelling and crappy grammar.

cap flop; call river, probably expect to see A4 or A7 from sb

Oh, one last thing, I'd probably 3-bet pre-flop (depending on MP read)

ya if I read this hand right I'm raising. And the hand is so much easier to play if you raise preflop...

should isolate MP with 3-town as you say PF. the blinds looks like some bs 2 pair~made flush, small set, original raiser has A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]K some sort. you are likely good most of the time in this spot so CAP the mother on the river +ev.
3 town PF is the key here.

As described I would be surprised to see thos ehands. He is tight pre-flop, which makes A4 unlikely. And he is looser post flop, which means witht he Ad (which he has to have if he has A4 or A7), then I would expect a turn donk.

Jesus. It's closer to 4-bet than fold.
