imo, unimaginative str8forward tags raise AQ/AK pre, c/c the flop, or check min-raise flop with it. this is a set of fives like every time.

but i still go broke, otherwise i cant complain about how bad i run.

Given his preflop stats he can easily show up with A5s here. Not to mention AK/AQ. Only one higher set is logical given the action, but his range is a lot wider than that. Don't fold.

I didn't fold and i NEVER fold in this situation. Maybe I should've made this a theory post b/c I knew all the responses would be "you have a set, never fold". But i'm telling you based on dynamics, bet-timing and bet-sizing, i really felt like I was behind. whether you think i'm a mental retard is another story - but it IS what I sensed.

this just sounds like something nobody here can help you with.

this is funny, i just read this tread and then played this hand...

Full Tilt Poker - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $1/$2 Blinds - 4 Players - (LegoPoker Hand History Converter)

SB: $152.55
BB: $79.40
UTG: $202.85
Hero (BTN): $242.45

Preflop: Hero is dealt K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (4 Players)
UTG folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $7.00</font>, SB folds, BB calls $5.00

Flop: ($15) 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)
BB checks, <font color="red">Hero bets $12.00</font>, <font color="red">BB raises to $24.00</font>, Hero calls $12.00

Turn: ($63) T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">BB bets all-in for $48.40</font>, Hero calls $48.40

River: ($159.80) 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players - 1 All-In)

Pot Size: $159.80 ($2 Rake)

BB had 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (three of a kind, Sixes) and WON (+$78.40)
Hero had K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (two pair, Kings and Sixes) and LOST (-$79.40)

turn should have been an easy fold from timing and such but i pretty much snap called

I know what you're talking about and I let my "system" take over a lot more than I'm sure a lot of people do. I've made some folds that I'd be embarassed to post on here and that I'd NEVER usually make, but I'm pretty confident that most of them were correct at the time.

if by "internal warning system" you mean a "feeling" that can not be empirically proven, meaning its not about the board or his stats or even betsizing/timing, i really wonder why anyone that plays poker seriously and makes money at it _has_ something like this.

Of course it has to do with what happens in the hand. But sometimes your subconscious is just better in putting things together.
When my "warning system" conflicts with the concepts I've learned, I think I should listen more often to my internal advisor than I actually do. It seems to get it right surprisingly often.

Look, if the flop was 234 and we had 222 and got a ton of action similar to this hand, you could make a good case for folding. But come on, there is no way this is a fold for the simple fact that he can have A5s and play the hand identically.
