NL $100. 6 max. No reads. How has the hand been played so far? What do I do on the turn here?

What I would think is this is were you need to know your oppenent. Are you willing to call a big bet on the river. Here you could easly be beat of course but you however could not and the villians hand just improved alot and he feals like betting and taking it down right there. I think alot of things go into play with a hand like this one. Things to be worried about are pretty obvious, set, two pair, possible straight. Does your oppenet bet draws or only made hands? What kind of hands has villian called with raises behind him? These are things to play into this hand. My first instinct would be im against a set, but that is just first glance.

He only has like $20 or something like that after his raise.

looks like a pretty easy fold with no reads. If you're behind you only have 5 outs max, and theres a good chance you're drawing dead. Unless you're fairly certain hes making a play you should fold here.

How was the hand played thus far? Would you do anything differently? I am thinking that I have defined my hand pretty well thus far. I have probably defined my hand as a good king or AA so far, correct?

Hand played fine to this point. But, with a call on the flop and then a raise on the turn with that board, this is an easy fold. Smells like a set or a made str8 to me (more likely a set).
You need to be able to get away from 1 pair hands where you have shown strength more than once and someone then comes over the top. More than 90% of the time you are beat. The only hands that villain could play this way that you are ahead of are like A7h or A8h or someothing like that. Save your $$ and fold.

I did end up folding the hand. I was just making sure it was the right thing to do. I think I represented a pretty strong hand yet he still raises me. I think I was definately beat here. I think he either flopped a set or hit some weird 2 pair hand.
