The table was pretty tight and I hadn't seen the big stack minraise before. I knew I didn't have folding equity, but I really didn't want to fold a pair with only 4 bb. What would you do here?

I push in a micro-second. I don't see how you can get away from this six-handed with the blinds so high.

If he's doing the "min-raise Aces" thing, oh well, hope for a 7 to fall.

I'd stop and go. If he folds overs to your pair just some of the time, you're in much better shape not letting him see the turn and river, or at least giving him some chance to fold, and he's seeing the flop either way. At least you eek out some FE this way.
