partypoker fastforward, Hold'em No Limit - $0.05/$0.10 - 6 players
Replay this hand on Upswing Poker

UTG: $13.22 (132 bb)
MP: $13.25 (133 bb)
CO: $10.37 (104 bb)
BU: $11.00 (110 bb)
SB: $11.12 (111 bb)
BB (Hero): $55.66 (557 bb)

Pre-Flop: ($0.15) Hero is BB with 6 6
UTG calls $0.10, MP raises to $0.40, 3 players fold, Hero calls $0.30, UTG calls $0.30

Calling here in order to set mine. Should I be folding here because I am out of position 3-way and a bluff is probably not profitable?

Flop: ($1.25) 6 A 9 (3 players)
Hero bets $0.89, UTG folds, MP calls $0.89

Betting our set for value against Ax. Seems OK.

Turn: ($3.03) 3 (2 players)
Hero checks, MP bets $1.44, Hero raises to $5.18, MP raises to $11.96 (all-in), Hero calls $6.78

Should I be thinking about folding here? Seems the only hand in the villains range that we are not beating is 99?

Never fold that pre please.
I don't see the point of donkbetting the flop as you're gonna get action only from hands that would have cbet anyway (or check back flop and called a turn donk etc).
Check/call flop check/raise turn should be the way.
As played never think about folding ever. And anyway you don't x/r for half of your stack to fold behind.

Would you consider 3-betting here, or just calling every time?

I have a call range on bb wich actually includes some pairs. But 66 is sort of a loose call in this spot given that UTG will be paying quite often. Since against two villians you can only ensure winning the hand by hiting set, you will be paying 3bb in order to win 12bb, wich means you need to hit set about 25% of the time. You sort of have implied pot odds and stuff but I would rather keep it simply. Against one player I would probably call more inclinated to fold since you have more lines to win the hand. I would check-raise on the flop for two main reasons. You just hit your set and there is an A on the flop. I dont know what UTG and MP range looks like but surely includes a lot Ax´s. So quite often you will be having action on the flop. This really is a dry board, the only hand catching project is 78, by 3-beting you isolate yourself many times against Ax´s. So you should not be scary to inflate the pot given that your hand is way ahead against villians range. Most of his range will be payin you two streets of value, and AK, AQ, A9, A6 would probably paying 3 streets.

I call every time, 3betting is pointless with a medium PP it reduces the SPR with a hand you are basically playing to set mine which is not what you want.

I certainly wouldn't consider it a "loose call" and don't understand why the fact that UTG is gonna call often would be a problem. It's all the better for our set mining hand. Basically I'm never giving up my blind to a single raise when I hold a PP, and neither are solvers nor snowie nor any decent range.
