    I think I might check call the turn, and check the river and see what villain does.

    You can fold this with the easiest of consciences. You have effectively 3rd pair (after K and trip 8s) and you've been raised and pushed into after showing strength 3 times.

    He has 44 or 55 or maybe A8/K8. The only time this would even be close were if he had like $1 left.

    Call flop, minraise turn bet is like THE universal monster line.

    Thanks for the input guys. I cant see him calling a raise with A8 here, but I also had to put him on a set of 4s or 5s with the river bet. The minraise on the turn was a bit of a clue but I was calling to see if I could hit a miracle Jack.
    For info, I folded this hand.
