Villain is pretty much an unknown but his first 10 hands are 50/0/2. I'm guessing he's a station and a donk.

How am I playing this river? Lead and call a minraise () or check-call? By checking do I lose a ton of value from hands I beat that he'll call with (assuming he is a donk who thinks an 8 is the nuts)?
