Default Anyway to avoid this set getting beat or getting away from the hand?

Don't know much about villian except that he is about 33/6 preflop. Pretty average aggression post flop. But I really figured his river bet and raise were much more indicative of a two pair that he hit rather than something that could bet a set. I don't know. Let me know if you think I played this right.

Most importantly, do you call river lead after you showed agression, or raise it up? I think a lot of times you see a worse hand here and lose value. But I don't know.

As for my line, I just called a raised flop because I don't think there are many draws out there. Turn card didn't scare me at all really, doesn't complete any obvious hand. Really only saw 76 as possible straight draw, not 64. When I get my raise in and everyone calls, I figure to be in a good spot. River doesn't have me worried.
