Uh yes it is. The differentiation between a "set" and "trips" is a fundamental of hold'em. If you cannot grasp this concept, then you are an idiot.

If you have a straight, do you say "I have a flsuh"? No, its the exact same thing here.

Trips and sets are 2 completly different hands. Don't get it twisted.

pg. 593 of Super/System II.

Iin the section about how to play small pairs...
"I play small pairs cautiously...I won't put a lot of chips in the pot unless I flop trips. And when I don't flop trips with a small pair..."

Doyle uses the term "set" and "trips" interchangeably. It just doesn't matter, and I don’t get why you’re making such a big deal out of it.
