    Seriously, did you ask yourself, "What would he call me with prreflop?" ...after you raised.

    You raised to put other people to a decision other than limping. You got a caller... what is he holding that would make him want to call your bet?

    You bet the flop with a WEAK top pair... then you get raised... AT THIS POINT IN THE HAND, YOU SHOULD FOLD! Even if you put him on a flush draw, you don't know that its flush draw, he could have an over pair, or A/J K/J, or 55/99, etc (so many hands that have you murdered here).

    Trying to put a guy all in is not the way to find out information. He has already told you he has a strong hand by #1 calling preflop raise, #2 raising your post flop bet. I would have let this hand go to the raise on the flop. There are better places to be involved in a large pot than this one.
