I thought it was a hard laydown but it looks like I was being too results oriented. He had pretty much what i thought he had.

either way I had less than 1/3rd pot equity, even HU. In a small pot, I barely have the odds to call a bet by just the low, let alone playing just for high with someone showing 3flush. I guess calling with just a big pair on fifth is a big leak of mine.
