Default Trying to protect overpair, but board pairs on turn.

Probably should've raised preflop, but ignore that part of the hand.

I think my flop play was fine as betting out on the flop stood no chance of folding hardly anyone, so I went for the checkraise.

The turn is where I got confused as the top card paired and the pot was large. If I just bet, everyone with overs is correct to call still. I reluctantly decided for another checkraise, but it was more out of confusion than anything. Any ideas on what would have been a better line for this situation?

Unfortunately I have very little in the way of reads, but table overall was loose and mostly passive.

Is this an easy fold after I get 3bet here?
