Default All fold, 83o from SB

I am a beginner NLH player, trying to move to NL after a few years at limit (low stakes, overall even after rake). Looking for advice to improve my NL game.

One of my first hands at the table, no information on the players.

Poker Stars, $0.25/$0.50 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 5 Players
LeggoPoker Hand History Converter

Hero (SB): $50.45
BB: $31.05
UTG: $29.60
CO: $8.75
BTN: $51.15

Pre-Flop: 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (SB)
3 folds, <font color="red">Hero calls $0.25</font>, BB checks

83o vs random is at 38%... do I have the odds to call here?

Flop: ($1) 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">Hero bets $0.50</font>, BB raises to $1, <font color="red">Hero raises to $3.50</font>

What do you do here? How do you read his minraise?

, BB raises to $9, <font color="red">Hero calls $5.50</font>

At this point I put him on slowplayed overpair (35%), Top Pair with better kicker (15%), Two pairs or trips (10%), Straight draw (15%), Overcards (15%), Total Bluff (10%).
Does this breakdown make sense to you? Do I have the odds to call $5.50 in a $15 pot?

Turn: ($19) 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">Hero bets $10</font>, BB calls $10

Good card for me, unless he has an 8 as well. I bet half pot not to give him the odds to call with an overpair or a straight draw. Correct?

River: ($39) K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">Hero checks</font>

This is a mistake I believe. I am probably pot committed, and I might be called from a few losing hands.

, BB bets $11.55 and is All-In, <font color="red">Hero calls $11.55</font>

Correct? I think I have to call the $11.55 on a $50 pot here.

Thanks for your help!
