I agree with Zybomb
Penguin, I believe you to be a good player, and very likely a better NL player than I am. But I don't like the play here at all. Checkraising with a pair of 8s?
If you want to play aggressive, fire at it to being with. Otherwise, it gets checked around, the turn brings that King, and you could well be beat.
Meanwhile, a moderate size bet by him could well mean he's on a draw, but you have to at least consider the possibility he has a 2 or a 6. Do you want really want to bet all your chips that he won't hit any of his 8 outs?
No disrespect meant, but I wouldn't have played it this way.
