I decided to go in with no RR Pre-flop because I had RR and raised alot recently and am trying to protect my TAG image rather than becoming LAG.

So how should i have played this? Or is it something you just cant prevent?

I put this person on high cards so maybe top pair or 2 pair - based on the PR!

Yeah, that sucks when that happens, but sometimes you gotta be wary of bigger sets.

Really does!

Guess I should just think myself lucky that I only took $6 to the table and made $12 with a similar hand at another table just before :)

Set over set is just too bad. Pay it off and carry on.

Nothing you could do there. There is no way you were folding a set unless you had a great read on your opponent.
