Default flop top two but get donked into HUGE.

CO has folded to every raise i've made thus far since he probably views me as a semi nit. i hadnt been very active. this is BB's first hand at the table.

after the flop, BB tanks for a bit and then bets $2. at first i thought he might have a set but at the same time, i really didnt want to get away from top two. by the time CO had thought about it and folded i decided that a set doesnt play this way because he wants to extract, not scare everyone off with an overbet. i figure he is protecting TPTK or two pair from straight draws. i decide to raise. i think my raise should have been to $6 but $5 seemed like an alright number out of the blue. i think $6 would have been better though since that puts him all in on the flop. i figure he is not folding unless it was a pure balls probe bluff.

on the turn he minbets, lol. it was obviously a blank to him as he isnt betting but we are obviously getting it in unless he is an idiot. pot commitment and all so i go ahead with it.

does anyone play this different? how's my line?

I'd play it exactly the same, no getting away from it if he flopped a set and donkbet big, make a note on him and that's all the energy you need to spend thinking about this hand.

I shove the flop, which is more or less what you did. Well played.

Folding would be silly. Raising flop and getting it in is good IMO.
