Your A and K are probably good here. I'd guess we're looking at any mid pair + A-2-3-4-5 and very rarely two pair. A-2 isn't all that likely given the PF raise, nor is 3-4 or 4-5. So really what we're pretty sure we have here (and in my experience most often see with the MP or LP min raise) is a mid pocket pair (we can't rule out AA or KK, but I haven't seen as much AA or KK minraising of late, so let's work under that assumption).

Knowing/reading that, we have 10 outs (AAAKKK2222). Plus the turn could yield a diamond or (possibly better) a heart. The flop raise says "I have 10-10, don't call with a heart" but sadly for him it also says "I don't understand odds, and am going to fold in disgust when that heart falls, because if you call here you must have two hearts".

I call here, turn is:

=a heart, I fire out fairly big
=a diamond, I reevaluate with an emphasis on c/c if his bet is reasonable
=a 2, I try to get all the money in. If he shows me 6-6, so be it.
=an A or K (maybe a Q or J), I'm either betting strong there or planing to c/r, but given the read, I'm probably just betting out.
=a brick, now I reevaluate with emphasis on c/f if he keeps it up.

Obv player and read dependent, and if he's the type to do this with AA or KK you're in dire striaghts here.

Fold. BTN is too short to make that a profitable call...
