Well, he cant have the nuts, so it is tough to put together how we are thinking the same player who cannot 3 bet the turn with a set can 5 bet the turn w/o the nuts.

I'm somewhat confused. You're going on the supposition that we got turn 3-bet by a non-nut hand. Then supposedly he's got a near nut hand, and that near nut hand (flush) beats us. And if we 4-bet, we still haven't established the bounds of villain's aggression. He may get stubborn and 5-bet us, which is very much bad news. However...

Also, if he does have a set and he fills up, the turn 4 bet will perhaps get us pretty sick action on the river.

As unlikely a set is with a turn 3-bet, this is actually an amusing and interesting thought. However, if we simply fill up, and he still gives us excess action, we still have one more thing to worry about [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].
