There are many articles in the Poker Strategy section of the forum. Theoretical and mathematical aspects of the game are well explained there... It's sad to see that people are coming to the forum just to type number of posts to join the club and play freerolls, instead of learning the game better. However it's still nice to see such players at the table, during the tourney, calling your pre-flop bet with K5o...

Poker hand in Holdem is 5 cards, deck is 52 cards, you have 2 pocket cards and 5 community cards to make the 5 card hand during flop-turn-river-SD.
So if you'll calculate things or just read the articles you will understand that you have less than 15% chance to hit a set on flop having a pocket pair. It doesn't mean that it will happen once during every 7 deals, you might not flop a set during 100 deals, cause it's 7 to 1.

in your case, you've flopped a set with pocket K5.

now do the homework, and you'll have the answer.
- what odds (%) do you have to hit a set on flop with just 1 card? 
- is it EV+ decision to spend 100bb stack for calling each bet with any two cards to see if you will hit some set, straigh or flush?

When you'll do this homework and find those articles with explanations, you might discover new articles and will find answers to the questions you've asked.
