    Also, I was wondering if anyone would look at a sample of 100 hands or so just to see if I have any glaring holes. Thanks.

    You also might consider a cbet on the flop to hide your set.

    You definetly need to drop a hammer on the turn to push off the str8 and flush draw.

    Before Fnord says it... Bet the flop, bet the turn harder, slow down on the river with that board...
    Hey knucklehead! Bonk!

    Yeah, I just am really bad in these situations. I get great hands on the flop and am too scared my opponent will just go way if I bet. From now on, no more slow playing online. Never. I am too sick of people catching crap on the river and taking the profit I have worked the last hour to build up. Thanks for the help and hopefully I can avoid this situation again.

    after calling preflop, it is free to get to the turn. He could very easily have the straight or flush draws so bet the turn HARD.
    I dont think slowplaying the flop is too bad here (although i personally would bet as i bet preflop) if he called with 33/ 99 / AJsorta /hands he thinks hes winning and you want to build the pot now as well as the whole bad odds to draws thing.
    If he called with another PP or someother hand then he probably isnt going to give you any more money anyway so dont be scared to bet and see him fold
