Default Middle set -- how should I have played it?

My first hand posting here; I hope it's okay. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Here's the situation. This is my third hand at the table, I bought in for the $40 minimum and doubled up on my first hand when I flopped bottom set and doubled up through the big stack at the table who flopped top two pair (the CO in this hand). My current stack is $88.

MP2 is one of the Full Tilt Pros, with a $240 stack.
CO is the big stack at the table with $796.

I had a tough decision here, but figured that I had no fold equity, could be behind in a set vs. set matchup, obvious flush and straight draws out there, and with no redraw to speak of (other than the case Jack), I mucked the 2nd nuts. Am I playing scared, or was this a reasonable laydown?
