Same 3,3$ R+A tournament on 888 Poker, where I flopped a straight flush in the second hand. Opponent was playing VPIP 17 / PFR 12 over 213 hands and decided to lead out on a low monotone board. His donk bet stats were 0 out of 3 opportunities. I think, folding on the flop would be to tight, but do we raise and get it in? And how do we react, when he fire again on the turn pretty much committing himself to the pot?

I think I would raise his donk bet here on the flop. You have a strong overpair and if he had the flush you would expect him to Check and Check Raise if you C-bet. His donk looks like a protection bet for a A9 K9, Q9 (J9? maybe? As a defend from the BB it's not out of the question) with maybe one heart . He is not likely doing this with 99, 44, 77.

As played, I am calling the Turn in most cases. If a 4th heart comes on the River, it's a gross spot but probably folding.

But I am still very new! How did you play the Turn?

I think he had :ah4::5c4: (5 any color). I analyze the hand taking in account he is a tight player.
Flop: he donk bet on the flop with nuts flush draw ( 9 outs), maybe to get info about your hands and/or make you fold, but seems a standart cbet anyway.
Turn: now he add 8 outs with straight draw too (2/6).
Here he Cbet on the turn, following the same line he made on flop, beting more than 70% pot size, representing the flush on flop and trying to making you fold any lowest hand made, but now he have 17 outs. :)

Of course the question..:D:
"BB bets 568, Hero?"

My answer have two ways:

1-I think you must to go for all his chips on the turn, because he have many outs, but only draws, no a made hand, and probably he will fold if you push there with your TT.

2- Taking in acount this was a low buy-ni tourney and being tight numbers, so maybe he is playing an ABC poker moves, beting for value on flop and turn, with a flush made on flop, then you have to fold ther (but to decide could be good help the info about how he played the before hands on the game). :)
