TPGK OOP on dynamic flop vs 0.75P cbet @ 25BB readless

1st hand in a $3.50 hyper turbo on pokerstarsReadless, I figure he's probably min raising something like [A,K,Q,J,TT-22,T9-T7,98-97,87,Tx6x-Tx2x,9x6x,8x6x,7x6x].On the flop I have about 65% equity vs this range (so I'm ahead if he's cbetting 100% of his starting range here) but so many turn & river cards make for tough decisions OOP if I I continue with money behind  so I decide to make my life easier by check raising all in vs his 0.75P cbet.I'm confident that the c/r jam is +EV against the population tendencies I have been playing against but is this the best play readless? SB: villain (500 in chips)BB: hero (500 in chips) PRE FLOPDealt to hero [Kh 8h]villain: raises 20 to 40hero: calls 20 FLOP [7s 6d 8d]hero: checksvillain: bets 60hero: raises 400 to 460 and is all-in

I am donking this readless,

I am donking this readless, there is like way to many combos that he could check behind with and that have good equity against your hand. Even players with quite high cbet are going to check back this flop frequently, so I would like to know he is cbeting a lot no matter what the flop texture is. By checking here, you get in to unpleasant spots very often in the first place.

But what's the plan?

What's the plan beyond our donk on the flop and future streets for his possible actions?

  • Jams - we need to make a judgement about his ratio of [donk induced bluffs + semi-bluffed draws + semi-bluffed overcards] to [made hands we're behind of value bets] to decide if we can profitably call
  • Re-raises non all in - as above, except now playing the turn & river OOP are even more gross if we continue with money left behind
  • Flats - now we're playing a turn OOP with another card out that is far more likely to improve his range than ours
  • Folds - we take down the pot and can note that he has folded to donk bet on middling dynamic board

Donking turns our hand face up - a vulnerable made hand - probably 8x or 7x. 
We have no reads so don't know how he would play his made hands, draws, overcards & air and so do not know where we stand after donking?
I think I'm struggling more generally with playing OOP - are there any good videos / resources specifically covering the theory / strategy of playing OOP?

Regardless, any additional advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
