This is a good laydown Imo. I remember watchin Fox when they had their weird championship thing with rounds, I cant remeber the name off the top of my head. Gus Hanson raised preflop, flopped top pair with AQ but with a possible straight and flush draw on board. He bet out and Barry Greenstein goes all in behind him. Hanson thinks about it and says behind, way behind, close call or something to that affect. What he was saying was he was either 50/50 if his top pair was good vs a big draw or he has way behind vs a set, str8 or even two pair. You are in the same situation, your opponant is representing AA or KK, if has that you are in big trouble drawing to one or 2 outs, same situation vs AKsp same vs a set. Even if he as AK with one spade you are pretty much 50/50. The only thing you are good against is two overcards with no spade. There isnt that much money in the pot, you've only put $6 in the pot. Good fold.
On top of all of this, what do you stand to win by calling. If he has Ak with no spade or on a pure bluff this is the end of the money you are going to win. While if you call you could be set up to lose a big chunk of your money if another spade hits or not.
