i've only recently got back into online play so maybe i'm a little off, but i don't think anyone checks a set against 4 opp on a straight heavy board. so i thought the only hand that beat me was a set of 4's and his most likely hand was diamonds, and i 3 bet...spew? bad logic?

I think this is bad logic. How do you get that his most likely hand is diamonds. I would say it's a possibility but trip K's,Q's, and Aces combined make it more likely that he's got diamonds considering the relatively few hands he's 3 betting here pf. Also, the board's not all that straight heavy. Only JT gives an open ender and the rest are gutshot's. It's true he could have a hand like AJs or ATs but even then he's got tons of outs to beat you and he's got position on you. I agree with Wonder on him being retarded if he played his hand this way because of the reasons he said. Put yourself in Villain's shoes and you have AT. You checked the flop through and now the MP pf raiser bets the turn on a blank. "Hmmm, yeah, he probably has a K or Q so I'll raise even though he's the favorite and I have no chance of him folding if he's got one of these hands." That's retarded. Either that or he's just being aggressive without even thinking. That's retarded too.
