Main question: how plays 66 vs his range?

Almost the ITM play!

BB: 33,873 (56.5 bb)
UTG+1: 14,761 (24.6 bb)

CO: 36,285 (60.5 bb)

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with 6

6

3 folds, Hero raises to 1,200, MP3 raises to 8,173 and is all-in, 4 folds, Hero?

fold to 3bet is fine here i think man...i don't think we are going to be up against anything worse, based on his tendencies.

could maybe even find a fold pre, because if you get 3bet it puts you in a shitty situation..unless the table is playing tight and you can abuse the bubble with steals from many positions...

but as played, i think you're flipping at best and dominated a good chunk.

r/f seems fine, however if players behind you are pretty loose you might want to consider just mucking it preflop since we have a lot of stack tension against us here and 66 never goes well postflop.

I like your pre raise to test waters.

And answer came to your very eyes.

The question is, do you want to experiment further?

Fold preflop, with your size stack not for set value, will be always difficult play postflop..

I would raise/fold right here.

With 3 folds in front if you I think folding is too nitty and limping is too weak (I almost never limp).

Once he jams you're doing pretty bad against his range. He'll rarely have smaller pairs. If I'm gonna flip for most of my stack I at least want some fold equity on my side.
