    If its the straight he has on the turn then call would be just about ok as the min raise is giving you over 5:1 and with implied odds think you can call turn, but folding turn or river would be ok I think in a DYM. Certainly a bit weird when you get a min raise as to if they have something or not. As its not folding out many and would think if they had a set or straight they might bump it a bit more. Certainly as played think fold river is ok, and likely right too, though may depend on villian a bit too.

    No offence to your opponent Evil but i have no idea of what your opponent has but i suspect that the ace is now beating you and he may have bluffed with the min raise but caught the ace(maybe A% or A9) but i'm flummoxed. Best to give it up and fight another day.
    I agreed to the fight twice last nigh(one playing with you on bubble)t when ahead and lost both times. On one occasion a 4xBB raise was called in bb by A8c. Flop was three clubs!!! I was sitting with KK...................sigh
    There are times when the logic of some players defeats me completely but if its flawed then good for the future, eh?

    I don't mind the turn call... you can probably stack him if you pair the 5 or K on the river.

    I hate these spots in DYM's when it's limped to you in the BB and you hit a piece of the board with a hand you'd otherwise fold pre... think you played it fine IMO.

    because its just a limped pot and because of the action it looks like the villain hit the flop, say the 9, he could easily have a hand like j9suited or 9 10s then turned a flush draw and obv hit it on the river.

     i think you played the hand fine considering you were oop.
