Villian was definetely a fish here and I got a very strong line from him. Obviously bet/fold does not play here, so it is either call or raise. Since I had something like ten hands from my opponent I would have been in big trouble at the turn and river even on blanks since I didnt know his postflop tendencies so I decided to go to AI with AQ.

I often see these min-raises as pretty weak by weak players. I'd have called OTF and see what happens on further streets. I guess I'd have called another standard bet OTT and folded on more action OTR

I probably would also just call OTF and then maybe call this down if turn and river are blanks. I wouldn't expect a good player to have that many strong hands here because most of his range should 3bet preflop. Flush draws are quite well blocked and if he has a draw it is most likely a gutshot. Fish of course can have more strong hand because who knows he might call with KJo and AA preflop. He can also have weaker hands like AK,AJ,AT and so on.

So it looks like you are way ahead/way behind. By calling you don't isolate yourself against nuts only and you let him barrel with his weaker hands.

Villain is x/r vs 2 opponents and we have to give him credit for that...

I wouldnt go all in on the flop you isolate yourself against a very strong hands, lower 2pairs or a straight draw are possible but also a straight or a set. Id call his raise and then decide on the turn. On this one I would be more inclined to give up.
