Re: Who played this worse
bet the flop ... if you'd bet the flop on a board like this with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], AKo, JT, etc., then you need to also lead out with a set here.
the other advantage of leading out is that it helps to build the pot (esp if you get raised) ... as it is you are over-betting the turn in hope of trying to build the pot up.
leading with a set disguises its strength well, esp when you lead at pots like this with draws as well. it also helps to build pots, w/o having to rely on opponents inflating the pot and forcing you to C/R (usually a sign of much strength.)

btw: on the river i'd just call the re-raise as i can see villain making the raise with the str8 here/ possibly trip K's (altho TP should/would have bet the flop.) overboat is def possible tho, which is why i wouldn't pop it back.
