I have moved your hand to our hand discussion board. There fits it better.

It's good to know what your though procces is during the hand, but I would consider to stack off the flop with 64bb behind if you call. As played the river is meh, but I don't think I can fold 42bb more.

Cheers,

This is what I think:

The hands that you had beat:

KQ (4 combinations)

The hands that had you beat:

QJ (3 combinations) <-- The huge raise on the flop makes this rather unlikely though.
QT of diamonds (1 combination)
JJ (3 combinations)

I'd call here considering that you only had to pay 25% of what the total pot would have been. The way I see it, you beat 36 to 50% of his range depending on whether you'd include QJ or not.

Very easy stack off OTF. Any draw will have to fold or call with incorrect odds. As played I have no idea. Pot odds are really good, but you beat just about nothing. Q8-QJ, JJ, T9, KT, JT, AT, what's left? KQ and AQ for split. Maybe you have to call, but it's not a great call, it's close.

The hand is well played.
Flop cbet should be probably a bit smaller and you should definitely just call the raise.
On thing most people don't realize is that there are basically no 3bet ranges in 3bet pots is most situations. The reason for that is, and this is a personal note of mine, it's too face up and therefore exploitable.

I don't know what BB cold calls a 3bet completely OOP, but it is definitely a strong range (mid-strong PP, strong suited hands basically).
BB should continue OTT with most of his range as he did (even with a hand like JTs that he should check/raise OTF at a high frequency, KJs, KTs). Turn is a call again.
River is a mix of calls and folds against a good player. AQ is the bottom of your range here. Don't forget you have AT, JJ, QJ and QQ on your range, which are obvious calls.
Overfolding here is not a problem knowing the population tendencies.

What is the surprise? 88 is a very plausible hand, although he should check the river.

Do you think hero play well the flop? 3bet and i don't think lot of times will better hand than hero. Villain play here KK, AA, KQ, 10Q, Q9, K10 or maybe just gut shot. If i know villain can able stack off only gutshot or over pair, straight draw i re-raise here.

Check raising 88 on a board like this on the flop seems a little bit weird with only 2 outs to improve to a full house and he gets only action of better.

Cold calling 3-bets is often with middle pairs, c/r is not a bad idea, Hero will rarley have a Q and he will fold everything else now or OTT.

Could be, but it's tough for him to represent a Q or J as well. if I had trips I would just call the flop as BB.
