call
The only hands you are ahead of is 6-4 or a presumably slow-played bare ace or something like Q+big_kicker, depending on reads those could ofcourse be very likly holdings at 3/6 /images/graemlins/grin.gif

I'm having a hard time putting MP1 on a hand. He open-limps preflop, checks the flop, and then raises your turn bet. 44? A4? 66?

I'd three-bet, because I think you're best here. If he caps, I'd check-call the river, for information if nothing else.

Also, the BB betting out on the turn after the flop has been check around is a common steal move. He might be raising you with a weaker than average hand thinking you're pulling a fast one.

A majority of the time, I think you still have the best hand, even when raised on the turn. Since the flop was checked through, MP1 could be raising anything from a weak A to a pair of queens to a mid pocket pair.

That said, i would call the turn raise and lead the river.

The reason I don't 3-bet is that this is not a hand that you want to face a cap with.
