Default possibly stupid

fw 2/5 live sat night little while ago no 5/10 or 5/5 going

4-5 limpers to me, sat 5-6 orbits ago, i'm surrounded by action, nothing signif for me yet, i call with 22 on button, and there's 6-7 to a 778 rainbow flop (~$35)

checked to me, i throw out 20, BB who is a nitty-looking know-it-all minraises, folded back to me, i call

turn (~$115) brings an 8 for a 8877 board. he has a full rack so similar stacks. "what a turn" he mumbles to his neighbors, hesitates and slowly, looking visibly disgusted, throws out 4 greens...

at this pt i but him on exactly a 7, maybe a 90% chance. assuming i have a tight image and he is a thinking nit, and my physical reads, and that i am not going to fold, what is the best way to take this down? at first i thought this would be a dumb thread, but talking to ppl there are quite a few differing opinions, from push, to call and push riv, to minraise, to show him a 2 and push, to whatever.

thoughts?

Fold, its not close. Nobody in that game will ever fold a full house for any amount of money, let alone for a lousy 100BB

You sure you want to even try and take this down. With your read your basically drawing dead and you have to make him lay his hand down. Alot of people are bad and dont lay down hands. Dont think your going to get him to lay down any 7.

If he were going to fold, I think that calling turn, push river would be best way to do it. He folds here probably never tho.

ok fair enough... SO, let's suppose we are going to continue with the hand, what is the most effective way, if there presumably is one, do best rep the 8?

DROP YOUR CARDS AND PUT YOUR HANDS WHERE I CAN SEE THEM!

I think putting any more money in this pot is insane and smells of tilt. This is a terrible spot to bluff, because there is an excellent chance he's going to call you down. How bad is the rest of the table? Is this really the best place you can get a bunch of your money in the middle? Just fold.

(If you have a history with villain, it's less crazy, but I still wouldn't do it.)
