Preflop
Given the stakes I like raising on the bigger side of the spectrum, especially with fat value hands like AK. If this was say an $11 MTT I lean more towards going to 2,5BB.

Flop
Clear spot to bet for value, so only the sizing is up for debate. I think, at this level people are very inelastic with AX and will pay off in a big way, and I dont mind, if they fold their gutshots now. So I lean towards betting more than 50% pot here. Maybe 60-70%. It depends on pot geometry though. I want to be able to stack off without varying my bet size to much from street to street.

Turn
Like I said already, I prefer more standardized bets like maybe 60-70% on each street rather than 50% on the flop and then full pot now. QJ got there, but that should really only be QJ of diamonds, so I am not to worried about that. When he jam, you have to call it off. He could be doing this with a worse two pair, or if he is bad with a hand like AQ. Or maybe some sort of backdoor flushdraw like A5 of hearts. People often get confused about a pair + draw type of hand and begin to raise it, when they should just call.

Results
Running top two into a set is just a big cooler. There is nothing, you can do to "incorporate" that or avoid going broke. Sets are rare and well disguised hands, which is the whole reason, why setmining can be profitable.
