    Holding a set, Checketh not thy flop whenst there art two of a suite.

    9 outs to the boat even if he doesn't have 2 pair. You must get all your chips in here with a 3-flush on the board. Lots of monkeys make this play with the Ah.

    Interesting overbet on the turn... AA? TJ no hearts? KQ?

    Weak post flop play, you can't be scared of a higher set here, so you have to bet out.

    I think I check call the turn after not betting the flop. Check/call the river if no boat. Unless he puts you all in, in which case you can fold without a read.
    You should never wave at people you don't know, cause what if they don't have a hand. They'll think you're cocky. "Look what I got motherfucker, this thing is useful, I'ma go pick somethin up."

    stop slow playing sets when there are 2 to a flush on the board.

    Listen to this advice and your sets will do great.
    (Damn, that signature of yours is distracting vqc!)
