Ok, this would seem like an easy fold normally, however because of such a dangerous flop, I was really surprised to get raised on the turn. The only hand I could really think that he would do this with is a strait, which still seems very bad not to raise the flop on.

Based on that, how often do you think when an unknown does this, they are a bad player with a slowplayed set, or a tricky player with a flush/combo draw? Vs. most regulars I would be much more inclined to call here, but since he was an unknown i just decided to fold.

I don't think that this is a bad line for villain to take with a set; he probably thinks you have overpair, and doesn't expect you to be drawing to anything. I would fold here against an unknown, all you're beating here is an aggressively played flush draw (something like AQs/ATs).

it's pretty bad for villian to not raise a set on this flop. any heart ,6,5
is going to slow down me down significantly...

and yes i know thats what I beat, But the way the villian played his hand, that seems like what he would most likely have if he was a strong player.
