Hero (BTN): $3.11 (155.5 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BTN with A♦: J♦:
2 folds, Hero raises to $0.06, SB folds, BB calls $0.04

Flop: ($0.13) 5♦: A♣: Q♦: (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $0.10, BB raises to $0.34, Hero raises to $0.74, BB raises to $4.51 and is all-in, Hero calls $2.31

Turn: ($6.23) Q♣: (2 players, 1 is all-in)
River: ($6.23) 5♠: (2 players, 1 is all-in)

Results:

Spoiler

$6.23 pot ($0.06 rake)
Final Board: 5♦: A♣: Q♦: Q♣: 5♠:
BB showed 5♥: 5♣: and won $6.17 ($3.06 net)
Hero showed A♦: J♦: and lost (-$3.11 net)

I am not really sure what range to give the BB here. Should I be slowing down once he raises on the flop as played due to the flush draw?

55, QQ, KdTd... maybe AQ.
He will call the weaker FDs.

I don't like stacking off with TPGK and a flush draw. You could just call and let him bet. I don't think he will continue with too many flush draws when you 3bet OTF?

Once he goes all in I don't know how the hell you can be ahead

I think this was a moment of madness the more I think about it 55 A5 (unless he choose to defended with Q5s )is pretty certain once he shoved and I don't have enough equity to call.

Think QQ and AA is unlikely to slow play versus button raise could be wrong.

Basically you may be right about QQ and AA but as you do not provide info about villain it cannot be said with a 100% certainty. There can still be a couple of combos...

I would bet smaller on the flop and I would call his c/r. You have position, showdown value, and are probably an equity dog when getting it in. That's not to say that shoving / 3-betting OTF is a -EV play; just that calling is a more higher EV. You can call flop, call every single turn, and then decide on the river.
