Paired board + maniac ensures you lose the maximum possible with your flush.

1. Everytime someone caps the turn with a draw vs. your set, you lose.
2. Everytime you bet your AK on the turn heads up, on a ragged board and get called, the river will be an 8 and you will lose to Q8 (note: The 8 and Q8 in this scenario can be substitued with other awesome hands calling you down because "you don't have any of that, and eventho I can't even beat a bluff, you don't have any of that")

folding when you dont have odds to draw means the river will complete you draw.

When you flop the underfull you will always be against at least one overpair and/or trips. As long as all the money goes in on the flop the turn will put three of a kind on board. If instead all the money goes in on the turn the overpair will river an overfull.

If you flop middle or bottom set there is a 50% chance you are against top set. However, if you flop any set on a board with three consecutive cards (567, 9tj etc.) there is a 95% chance someone has flopped a straight.

If you are on the highside of a set over set situation there is a 33% chance your opponent will quad up on the turn or river, unless someone else has also flopped a straight or flush, in which case the board will never pair.
