Default It\'s a SET! is this the right play?

Villain has been making big raises preflop and is very aggresive post-flop. Is my play here correct?


Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (6 max, 6 handed) internettexasholdem.com

BB ($214.10)
UTG ($217)
MP ($190)
Hero ($221.05)
Button ($107.10)
SB ($126.30)

Preflop: Hero is CO with 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. MP posts a blind of $2. SB posts a blind of $1.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP (poster) checks, Hero calls $2, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB (poster) completes, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises to $8</font>, MP folds, Hero calls $8, SB folds.

Flop: ($24) K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets $25</font>, Hero calls $25.

Turn: ($74) A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets $45</font>, Hero calls $186.05 (All-In), BB folds.

Final Pot: $305.05

Looks fine, id rather a raise on the flop but this is good too. If he has a higher set so be it, you wont fold, but he wont fold AK KQ AQ either which are his most likely holdings.

You are WA/WB on the turn. Since villain is so aggressive post flop, I would call turn, river.

If he checks river, bet 1/2-3/4 pot.

What?

Through in a raise somewhere and stack him. This is a great board for you. AK/AQ/KQ all pay you off, if he has top set i doubt he would play it that way the only hand i see you behind right now is JT if hes the type to raise with that.

FYP

By the way I think raising this flop is pretty bad. You slow down TPTK/TPGK and alot of hands that otherwise would keep firing into you.

I'd raise it up first time around(preflop), makes it play a bit different. As played I raise flop, your line right now looks just like many donks play sets
