Betting a set, then get hit by a raise ... do I fear the worst?

[RobMay]

Should I have backed down on the turn here? My instincts told me he had out-flopped me, but the masochist in me just had to keep going just to prove myself right.

Youre getting 2:1 on a push and there is only one plausable (just complete from the SB) holding he has that beats you at the moment while youre still drawing live. Get your money in and dont feel bad

[Snag]

He could be doing this with a variety of hands. Get your money in here, and you're ahead most of the time.

At these stakes - laying down here is a crime against humanity.

Eh, sucks, but you still had outs. That is the classic trap line though, call flop bet and then minraise turn bet.
