Default NL 50- Postflop line with 88

Villain is 34/3/.8 over 25 hands.

Poker Stars, $0.25/$0.50 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 6 Players

MP: $30.35
CO: $15.05
BTN: $45
SB: $44.75
BB: $33.05
Hero (UTG): $50.95

Pre-Flop: 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (UTG)
<font color="red">Hero raises to $2</font>, 4 folds, BB calls $1.50

Flop: ($4.25) 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)
BB checks, <font color="red">Hero bets $3</font>, BB calls $3

Turn: ($10.25) Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)
BB checks, Hero checks

River: ($10.25) K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">BB bets $5.50</font>, Hero?

On the turn I felt like a check behind was best. My hand is probably good but I felt like getting to a cheap showdown was important. Also if raised I would have to fold and didn't want to turn my hand into a bluff.

Bet/fold turn for a free sd. Charges draws on a very drawy board, he's not likely to raise worse and he'll probably call one more time with 7x.

snap call river imo. I usually bet the turn for about $7, I'm not look for a cheap showdown against a passive fish who will probably call down with tons of hands we beat on this board.

Yeah, call river. Sometimes it's Kxss or Qxss but more than 25% it's a whiffed draw or a worse pair.

Bet this turn for about 7.50, he could easily have a 7, a straight draw, or a flush draw. As both of these missed, and it's unlikely he randomly hit a Q or K in his hand, this is an easy river call. Plus, you're getting 3:1 and we're definitely good more than 25% of the time
