Your turn bet is a little bigger than needed and I don’t agree you’re almost always ahead. If he’s tricky at all he can easily have aces or quads knowing that any pair will probably stab turn.
That would be pretty ridiculous to check flop and turn with AA or KK with 2x pot size left. You are giving pocket pairs just a free turn card to rekt you. If you aren't betting this flop with AA or KK OOP than what flop are you betting?
Only hand I could see checking 2x is TT or 99 - and the very rare JJ as 66 and 44 would never 3b here.
GTO does fold the 88 here pre as I would expect it to, but that assumes you will get back 4b. If that will rarely happen I don't mind the call to set mine, but probably still would be best to fold pre.
So if I choose the call - based on GTO the worst hand I can have here is A4s which rarely calls (30% of the time) or QQ as KK and AA 4b half the time, and call the other half. Even JJ folds here. I guess it likes 77 sometimes for what ever reason.
