25NL, folding my set on the flop

[lautzutao]

I'm not really going to disagree with anything that's said here, because what everyone here is saying in these responses is correct. And I can't tell you how pukey it is to even think about folding a set on the flop.

But this particualar villian is absolutely not semi-bluffing. He's not pushing a draw, and he's not checkraising slowplaying an overpair on this board. If he had raised first time around, I 3-bet, he put this raise in I push without batting an eye...

But the WAY he arrived here by smooth calling that first bet and then putting in this huge raise made me think he knew I liked my hand and didn't seem to care if I pushed, and that makes me think he had either 22, 55, or a straight.
