Hand converted with online PokerStrategy.com hand converter:

Play hand

$0.01/$0.02 No-Limit Hold'em (8 handed)

Known players:
[tg]SB$2.28:///////;BB$1.61:///////;UTG2$2.03:///////;MP1$2.02:///////;MP2$1.98:///////;MP3$2.00:///////;CO$2.44:///////;BU (Hero)$2.42:///////;[/tg]

Preflop: Hero is BU with K:s, Q:s.
5 folds, Hero raises to $0.08, SB folds, BB raises to $0.14, Hero calls $0.06.

Flop: ($0.29) 8:h, 3:s, 8:s (2 players)
BB bets $0.14, Hero calls $0.14.

Turn: ($0.57) 2:c (2 players)
BB raises to $1.33, Hero folds, BB gets uncalled bet back.

Final Pot: $0.57.

So the initial minraise preflop is a definite call right? How about the call on the flop? I'm not quite getting correct pot odds but I figure he's pretty likely to pay me off with his full stack if I hit - is this right or should I just fold it on the flop anyway?

Hi,

PF call is standard in position against middlestack who only min-raised.
I´d prefer raising flop and calling shove. Problem is that you have there too much equity to just call flop and fold to turn shove. For example if he has TT/JJ, you´re flipping against his range:

board: 8h8s3s
Hand Equity Wins Ties
KsQs 48.69% 5,784 0
TT,JJ 51.31% 6,096 0

Since he bet half potsize, he can also has AK/AQ that is ahead of you, but likely would fold either flop raise or turn shove

board: 8h8s3s
Hand Equity Wins Ties
KsQs 44.77% 10,470 336
AK, AQ 55.23% 12,954 336

You´re only doing bad against aces and kings, although even there you have 30% equity:

board: 8h8s3s
Hand Equity Wins Ties
KsQs 30.45% 2,712 3
AA, KK 69.55% 6,195 3

and A high flushdraws, that isn´t too realistic, since players more often call with Asxs than min 3-bet from bb.

board: 8h8s3s
Hand Equity Wins Ties
KsQs 19.55% 189 9
AsJs 80.45% 792 9

Giving your overall equity+ fold equity I´d prefer raising flop to 0.45$ and shoving any turn card.
