Default Irritating hand advice please

This hand has been bothering me and was wondering different lines to take. I took the ultra conservative play and dont normally take this line.

No reads on player, I just sat only have bout 30 hands on him and he's runnin 22/11/1.5

SB: $100.00
BB: $112.45
UTG: $125.20
Hero (CO): $129.50
BTN: $98.50

Hero is dealt J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
UTG folds
Hero raises to $3.50
2 folds BB calls $2.50

Flop: ($7.50) 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)
BB checks, Hero bets $6.00
BB raises to $20.00
I time bank it...
Hero folds
Uncalled bet of $14.00 returned to BB

Ok so what are you lines, how would you play it. Folding is weak I know but I can see an 8 in his range. Pretty textured flop also so there are a ton of hands that could have a piece of this.

My hand is also susceptible to overcards so I dont like flat calling, and a decent size raise will commit me.

advice please

I see him trying to either 1. get you out (which he did) or 2. represent the 8 (without too much knowledge, it is hard to tell) or more likely 3. spade or straight draw AND trying to get you out. I don't think you made the wrong play necessarily but you might have wanted to gamble by a. calling and if a scare card does not come then pushing or b. re-raising to see where you stand on the flop.

if you mean to 3bet and fold to a shove then you might as well quit poker. I think folding and shoving here are about equal, and calling is weird because there's so many scare cards. I'd put him on the NFD/JT and shove it personally.

But a rr to say 60ish, guy only has bout 20 more behind when he shoves so I can't fold. Min raise anyone?
