But, raising did make sense to me because he could have raised me with two pair or a set as a semi bluff.

I have seen people play sets like this, and weak players never fold sets on the river. A bad player wouldn't raise the turn here for fear of losing the two remaining customers. This villain isn't necessarily weak, but his line thus far is curious.

We've all seen this. The "ZOMG I have a set - MUST SLOWPLAY. Can't raise the turn - it's four ways. Look at the river - I'm probably beat. MUST RAISE ANYWAY. I HAVE A SET."

Two other factors: our hand is somewhat disguised since we played it hard and the villain doesn't have a read on us either - a strong reason why we'll get a crying call.
