All in time.
You played it fine. Although a minraise in general is usually a bad idea because it so often gives your opp the pot odds to call and then will destack you when they hit, in this case you never gave your opps the correct odds to chase. By the time you min raised you are now giving your opponents at least 5:1 odds to call - i.e. it's just one more buck into a pot that now has $5 (and by the time Trooper called it was 6:1 for him). Usually laying this type of odds is horrible, but in this case the best they could reasonably have is the K since the flush can't beat you so they only have 4 outs for the turn (somewhere around 11:1) and even if he doesn't hit then he will have 7 outs for the river (somewhere around 6:1).

The bummer of your flop bet wasn't pot odds, it was implied odds. I.e. it was very worth it for both of your opps to chase down their low percentage boats because you were going to pay off your whole stack if they hit... and this is exactly what happened.

In the end though this is just one of those hands that happens sometimes. Suck it up and move on.
