I think I was asking for the outdraw here. Maybe I should've bet more on the turn? What do you think?

It was a very bad play by MP2. He shouldnt have called pre flop raise with 43s hr shouldnt have called your flop raise as he had nothing. You could have raised more on the flop to win the hand right there but otherewise you just got unlucky.

Bet the turn harder, lots of hands are willing to call.

I agree. I'd also argue that you need to bet more on the flop. You raised 3x pre flop, so I would think you'd want to bet half the pot or so to disguise your set. Most players would then put you on an overpair with that flop. Either you'd take it down right there or else he'll call you with horrible odds. A bet that small is just begging to get outdrawn. Gotta really push the agression up.
