Default $3.4 - TP vs loose donk

I flopped TP from BB, I betted and a very loose player called.
Next streets he 'min' betted twice.
Did I play this hand correct?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (7 handed) by Hand Converter CG

CO (t3200)
Button (t1480)
SB (t3240)
Hero (t1410)
UTG (t3090)
MP1 (t1410)
MP2 (t1170)

Preflop: Hero is BB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
UTG calls t30, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, CO calls t30, Button calls t30, SB completes, Hero checks.

Flop: (t150) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets t30</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t120</font>, UTG folds, CO folds, Button folds, SB calls t90.

Turn: (t390) A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets t60</font>, Hero calls t60.

River: (t510) 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets t150</font>, Hero calls t150.

Final Pot: t810

I play it the same. good raise on the flop vs. loose player.

Ace makes me puke, but i'm not folding to that. I don't like a raise here, so the call is good imo.

I think we can look him up on the river. It's close, but i think i'd call getting those odds.

I don't like raising the flop, it's a pretty bad reverse implied spot. Rest of hand, your odds are too good to fold.

But if we raise the flop bigger we know that we can safely fold to any reasonable bet on later streets. If the turn is a blank and he fires again are you folding having just called the flop? It's still a bad reverse implied odds spot if we call the flop, unless we're folding the turn which against a "loose donk" would be bad imo.
