Nothing wrong with your play.

I'd be shocked if you weren't up against a set or AA here (if your opponent is rational... or maybe   ), but once you raised on the flop, you were pretty much committed. Given the betting and stack sizes, pretty hard to lay this down without more evidence.
Only way I see you escaping here is if you just smooth call the flop and you can read your opponent extremely well.

And even at 50nl there are plenty of donks willing to pay you off with ugly hands. I think Villains range is too big for you to fold with the odds you're getting.

Edit: I suppose his range isn't that big, but I still play it the same way you did.

Ok, so clearly your opponent is not rational.
