Alright the only worse hand twin would ever play like this is jjxx and even then I doubt he'd raise. There is a very good chance he has a straight here. If he were to overplay a set it's more likely it would be kk. chances are your drawing to an ace for a chop or board pair outs it seems like a pretty standard fold.

This doesn't look like a favorable risk/reward situation. You hope he's trying to isolate you with bottom set or two pair, but it's going to cost you soo much to find out. I would have preferred a flop raise.

The hand is worth discussing because Twin is a nutjob. You can't just peddle the nuts versus this guy.

That being said, I've played him a fair amount at PLO and he gets out of line preflop and on the flop quite a bit but this turn action is usually going to be genuine. Especially given the side pot situation. I just don't see him doing this with lower set or top two.

I would take into account how ramped up he was and what his image of you is (because he is definitely capable of pressing you on the turn if he thinks you are a nit or weak/tight). If you have a pretty standard aggressive solidish image at all or even just not-insane LAG type image, then I would muck
