Results follow (highlight to see):
MP3 shows a full-house, threes full of sixes (6h 6d)
Hero shows (As Qc)

MP3 wins with a full-house, threes full of sixes (6h 6d)

I value bet A high on river because i think he would raise all his pairs on flop and cap AK preflop.

I left the results in because villain had 66 and would like to ask if this is standart? Because in his spot i would always raise my pairs to kick CO out.

its not standard. he just played too weak. normally he should raise the flop as you will very often just have overcards AJ AQ AK KQs and each hand does have 6 outs against 66. he misplayed his hand but on the river i don't see any option but playing bet/fold but when you do have the read now that he is weak with pocketpair and is unlikely to bluffbet any hand, you could also consider a tough check/fold on the river.
