Default 100 NL: SB v. BB hand with 77/20 donk.

The BB in this hand is a loose aggro who min-3-bets a lot. I didn't want to 4-bet preflop because I don't think I'd be willing to call a 5th bet with my hand even though it's probably good. I'm thinking that check-calling all the way down is the most profitable but comes with the highest variance. The other options include leading the flop, check-calling the flop with the intention of leading/checkraising the turn, or checkraising the flop. So which line do you like the most here?

Isn't this good for me since he's 77/20 and it's a blind versus blind hand?

He minraised you prelfop which can mean a lot of things especially from a 77/20 but considering you didnt give us his AF I'm guessing its not that high.
He is being ultra aggressive following a minraise preflop and you have an underpair.
Either call him down if you think hes gonna bluff this hardcore (which I woulf fold turn). But you arent gaining ANY value IMO by pushing here.
What calls you?

I guess I didn't describe him well enough, but I think that a flop lead or checkraise is a better option. I don't feel like digging up his stats again, but he appeared to continually bet the pot anytime he had the lead in a hand. Very aggressive player on all streets.
