Flop comes T64, BB bets 5000 of his remaining 9500. I push.

This kind of bet screams "I want more money in the pot" and would induce me to fold. Any time someone makes a relatively small bet compared to pot size, yet that bet is a majority of their chips, that tells me they're just aching to double up with the rest of their chips.
The preflop call is tough to turn down on pot odds. But again, that min-raise preflop screams once again "power hand" that he's trying to milk. Not saying it wasn't worth a call preflop, but I'd be very cautious.

I agree that you should have folded the flop.
Nothing wrong with trying to steal the blinds. And I too have a huge problem folding to miniraises, especially minireraises because I always think that they're giving me a cheap chance to stack them with a miracle flop.
As it were, here on the flop he pot-committed himself. There's no way he's laying this down and you have top pair, crappy kicker. Sometimes you fold the best hand here bit I think most of the time you're way behind.
