I played the hand below on 888 without specific info on many of the players as i only just joined the table.

$0.01/$0.02 No-Limit Hold'em (9 handed)
Known players:
[tg]BU$2.10:///////;SB$2.00:///////;BB (Hero)$0.80:///////;UTG1$0.64:///////;UTG2$1.98:///////;MP1$3.78:///////;MP2$2.00:///////;MP3$2.00:///////;CO$2.52:///////;[/tg]
Preflop: Hero is BB with 4:d, 7:h.
2 folds, MP1 calls $0.02, MP2 calls $0.02, 2 folds, BU calls $0.02, SB calls $0.01, Hero checks.
Flop: ($0.1) 8:s, 6:d, 2:d (5 players)
SB checks, Hero checks, MP1 checks, MP2 checks, BU checks.
Turn: ($0.1) 5:d (5 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $0.10, MP1 folds, MP2 calls $0.10, BU folds, SB folds.
River: ($0.3) A:h (2 players)
Hero bets $0.22, MP2 calls $0.22.
Final Pot: $0.74.
My thought process:
preflop: 5way limp, I check from the BB. Nothing wrong with that i guess.
flop: I have a gutshot out of position. My plan is to check/fold, or call if the bet is small. Against 4 other players i don't think i can lead out here.
turn: I hit, have a low straight and get a flushdraw. I lead out for value expecting to get called by flushdraws, or raised by a higher straight. <-- may not be correct?
There is one caller.
river: offsuite ace. I am still wary of the higher straight and I decide to raise/fold.
Is there a better play on the river? Would you suggest to raise/call, or check/call?
Thanks.
