With an M of 10 you are not getting very good
implied odds. Small pairs and suited connectors
lose much of their value in this area. You will
not flop a set often enough to make up for those
times you don't. However, the pot odds are quite
generous and that is why I still call.

I disagree with the probe bet on this flop. A good
player will see this bet for what it is and you
feel your opponent is a good player. I would be
more inclined to check and fold. You had a plan
to either flop a set or get out. You didn't flop
your set and you didn't get out. You tangled with
another big stack and you may have been outplayed.
Stick to the plan and don't waste chips if you
don't hit a five.

In villain's shoes I often minraise the flop donk
to exploit the weakness it represents, even with
a hand like AK. Of course it is more likely he
has your fives beat but there is just no way to
know. Stick to the plan. Not another penny if you
don't hit your five. Or else you could just fold
preflop in the yellow zone and avoid this type of
spewage.

You said you can't outplay him and then tried to.
