Party. Blinds .1/0.25. All stacks about $25.
I am in MP with KK, raise to 1.5, get two EP callers. Pot is ~4.5. Flop comes 345 two diamonds. Villain bets 3, Villain2 calls 3, I min-raise to 6, they both call. Pot ~22.5
Turn comes a 7. Villain is all in for about $13. Villain2 folds. I thought, no way would he call PF raise with a 6, and called. He had 66 and won with a straight.
There are probably many things I did wrong here ...

Don't min-raise. Raise atleast 2/3 of the pot.
EDIT: especially on a board this coordinated.

This is $25 NL, never assume things like this. People will call with a 6 here (and often be right to do so).

Uhhh...Yes.
Preflop: Fine, I'm guessing you had two limpers upfront and then made the 6xBB raise. You could have pushed this to 8xBB - 10xBB if you had more limpers.
Postflop: This is a pretty scary board for you high PP. When you got a raise and a call you need to bump it to like $15 or push because there is $10.50 in the pot already. The minraise is the WORST thing you can do here. You are give you opponents 5:1 pot odds and astronomical implied odds so a straight draw and a flush draw are required to call here. If you get a caller here I would be slowing down because you are probably up against a made straight, AA or a set.
Turn: Terrible card. The allin is pretty much a signal that you are beat. I would have dumped it.

Don't minraise. A proper raise will pot-commit you, so push the flop.
