Default 2/4 line check with 8s

I have been playing 26/26/6 over 120 hands on the table, haven't really shown down any hands, didn't notice much about villain other than he's calling a lot of CB on flop and pretty aggressive after that

villain's stat is 24/15/2.2 over 200 hands, his AF on flop/turn/river are 1/4/i

and he calls 67% of the CB, should I play any differently on flop and turn?

I'd call this since he's probably incapable of betting a Q for value.

I can certainly understand reasons for checking flops with decent made hands but don't you think 88 is a little too vonerable to play like this? I would like to hear your rational for checking behind here.

I would fold river and prolly check turn some of the time.
I don't hink he bluffs us here, there's no draw the board is double paired, his hand has some showdown value if he got there and I don't see why he can't vbet a Q here.
