Default ($114) Call w/ 88 on river w/ 2 overs?

Villain is down $1500 on sharkscope over 300 SNGs or something. I know I could raise preflop but I don't think it matters much. Call the river?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t20 (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

Button (t1500)
SB (t1500)
BB (t1500)
UTG (t1500)
UTG+1 (t1500)
MP1 (t1500)
MP2 (t1500)
Hero (t1500)
CO (t1500)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, Hero calls t20, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, SB completes, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises to t80</font>, Hero calls t60, SB calls t60.

Flop: (t240) 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t140</font>, SB folds, BB calls t140.

Turn: (t520) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
BB checks, Hero checks.

River: (t520) 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets t280</font>, Hero ?

i think it's a safe call here, smells like busted AK/AQ type hand or a small pp with no set, tho i guess against a donkey you'll run into A9 a small part of the time..

Thin call I suppose, although all we have is a bluff catcher and this bet feels real value-like. Might as well see what he has I guess, even it it's somewhat -EV immediately.

I bet the turn for value and check behind most rivers.

As played it seems really close, but I guess i call.
