Just looking for general comments on all streets here, really. Villain in the hand is an insane 77/15 over 113 hands. I've been waiting for a spot to double up through him, basically, as he is an absolute station. Given the fact he is such a station, how do you play this hand against him?

Turn shove is fairly standard, I'd have thought, given the fact that our equity vs his calling range makes it +EV even if we have minimul fold equity, I'd have thought. Is this completley standard? Is it the best way to play this kind of hand? Or should I take a much more passive approach against a station who I've very little FE against and who will probably pay me off if I hit, anyway? Another problem here is neither draw is too the nuts, the queen kills us if he has an ace, for example, but we've no reason to assume he does at this point.
It's mainly the flop I was interested in, the turn gives me more outs, what if it doesn't? The flop raise was as much about pot building against his calling range which includes all one pair hands as much as anything else, so I can get it in if I hit. If the turns a complete blank instead of giving me some extra equity, what do we do?
