Yeah, got to. Why chase a flush if you fear a higher flush when you hit and get action?

thats an oversimplification. what is villain's hand range after the minraise? what range of hands will he call with after we put in a 3rd bet on the river. what range of hands will he push with. there are many combinations of flush cards that the bb could have which beats us.

the river also completed a straight draw. This is very possible hand to hold, or villian could be donk-bluff raising. Maybe also reraising to see where he's at. Either way you have to raise here. There are plenty of hands/combinations/whatever that are worse than your hand that a 100nl donk will call on river.

that's a much more reasonable response than the other poster's

Opponent had a set of fives. I think he would have laid it down to a three bet but who knows.

No way he folds. He was being tricking and trapping you...
