How to play from here? What range do you put him on?

[Milky]

Something with an ace, maybe a diamond draw, maybe a weirdly played set? But you're beat most likely...

[Profish2285]

I put him on a range of hands that all beat 88.

[WhskyRiv]

Ya, Ace rag possibly...i agree most likely you're beat here.

[Lego05]

What's the mystery? 88 is no good. Fold.

[DaycareInferno]

i don't really understand what your thought process is leading up to this. what do you think this guy donks into you with? what are you trying to accomplish with a turn bet?

[reemas]

i was trying to win the pot by betting. i folded. but i think the turn bet was fine.

like someone said earlier, his range beats 88, but i couldnt narrow it down. seemed like that ace helped him?

[DaycareInferno]

if you thought you were behind his range on the flop, you should have folded then. if you think you're ahead of it, you should check the turn.

[Profish2285]

Edit: Sorry didnt see the pf action correctly. I would check
behind the turn here and see what he does on the river. You have a hand with showdown value that youre turning into a bluff by betting this turn.

[DaycareInferno]

its not a float, because we had the lead. big difference.
