Pre i think is std call ... Flop maybe fold is ev+ , but he bet small and i have backdoor straight so i call it...
Turn and river i have to convert it to a bluff to make fold hands like 88-99-TT-JJ-QQ ? Or is best to check turn and check river and try to go SD cheap?

Flop is always call.
In theory you turn weakest pp into a bluff the better the runout is for you the more you do it. This is more or less brick runout so you should play for SDV.

So in this runnout is check check turn River u say? Yeah I convert it to Bluff, but maybe is best an A or a Q for example to bet turn and push River?
The more your hand has have sdv the less likely you want to use that hand to bluff. If we assume villain is range betting flop, and then checking, he will have a lot of air in his range and you want to realise vs. that range. You can think of it like this: if you have so much sdv, bluffing has to be really lucrative to rather bluff than check down. I don't thin this is the case here.
That said, villain should have so many hands like AQ, AJ, QJs, QTs, JTs, that you could make an argument to bet really small for thin value / protection, but then you reopen the action and could get x/raised.
I think big bet is the worst of all these options.
Don't fold flop, you're getting a really good price and you're in position. Folding is way too nitty. At equilibrium you should be folding 13% of your hands here. And there's no reason to think you should deviate as we can assume villain is 3-betting at a reasonable clip and also range betting this flop.

Flop fold can't be +EV (I guess you meant higher EV than calling. fold will always be 0 EV) . But anyway facing a 25% range bet on this board it would be quite a punt to fold 77, we should always call pairs and even some random bdfd+bdsd. Due to our range being so wide, OTT we have better bluff candidates. It's true that we sometimes bluff lower pairs, but I don't think that's the case on such a brick runout. Even if it was, we'd probably bluff 22 and some 55, but 77 is way too high in our range. It also wins against a lot of his range.
My advice would be to think of your whole range here. Once you are able to visualize that, you'll understand you need to be selective with your bluffs. Then you can figure out which hands will be prioritized to bluff and which won't.

Ty. Sure flop is call, and yes I was too agro and dont think well, but I learn the leason I think. When have sd value vs wide range dont bluff, when dont have sd value depend the runnout Bluff or not
