This would be an interesting time to just straight open push on the flop.

I think you made a mistake at the flop there, though. You had the full house and the nuts (unless he had 5-5, but then why would he have reraised before the flop?). It was a dangerous full house, though, since you were probably dealing with a large pair. Instead, you should have made a huge bet there after the flop, even going all-in. You knew you had him beat, and your slow playing backfired.

Anyway, it was a brave lay down once you'd reached that point.
