Thats a strange one,could have really big pair and let you take off a card I mean. But theres 2 hearts there so that wouldnt make sense, and if he had flush draw wouldnt he bet it. Alot of people would throw this away quick but you really might be ahead!
Conservative approach would be not to call, I mean you really are beating only a bluff, and calling that much with a small pair like 55, very marginal decision.
Id fold this more often then not, but if i knew my opponent well enough definitely consider a call if hes a bit crazy. He knows you dont have that strong you would bet the flop or re raise pre flop.
Guess i got to vote for a fold, but id call this 1/3 maybe unless my opponent is a rock.

I don't think calling is +EV. It sounds like he has a big pair and was attempting a c/r on the flop? Its confusing. But, you might be ahead, what percentage of the time? Who knows, but I think it isn't enough to play for your whole stack.
