I'd say it's the first tournament I play so long, even was a chipleader. But I'm too conservative, that's for sure.

Yeah i think as it played a fold on the flop is the only choice. I dont mind the call of the allin preflop, and then it is just minrasied so you definately have the pot odds to call that. On the flop the only hand within the preflop reraises range that you are beating is AK (AJ possibly), any pocket pair (can't see him reraising with 22 or 44), is beating you, so you have to believe that you are drawing to 2 outs, with 2 cards to come, which is never a +ev move.

Agree with above. Your play is fine. You make the call with 66 hoping to close action there. Minraise by other villain you have to call since you're getting 4.5 to 1 odds at that point. On the flop you can't call the 4k bet, its too risky. I wouldn't say you played this conservatively.

A case could be made for folding this PF, if anything just for the fact that the 990 all-in by first villain is small compared to the pot once you make the call, making it not likely that action closes there. The BB has to put only 590 to call, and the pot, after you called the all-in, is 2580, so BB would be getting 5 to 1 and he should call almost with any 2. Perhaps a raise would have been better than just the call, but in hindsight good thing you didn't.

Something very similar to this happened to me last night, difference was I sitting in the CO and had aces. A small stack went all-in and I just smooth called, hoping to start a side pot with 1 of the 3 players left to act. It turns out the SB had AK and raised all-in, I instacalled obviously and made much more than I would of if I had raised the all-in (not really sure though, maybe the AK calls anyway).

In your case here you have 6's and 4 players left to act. A valid argument can be made each for folding, calling or raising. I think the way you played this is fine the whole way. Don't let the 6 on the turn fool you, you can't call the 4k on the flop.
