I would fold. You only beat 77. I don't think villain would 3barrel with overcards.
I would probably also fold pre-flop.
But I am curious what others say. ;-)

Folding pre-flop would be standard or villain is aggressive, but on NL2 most villains are passive. Against a unknown a fold would be better. Flop is fine to call on a small Cbet, but after his turn Cbet I'm done with the hand. Bluff catching isn't profitable on NL against a unknown.

OOP with 88 is a fold preflop.
