This is something VERY simple that I've really been struggling with.

66 is definitly worth a flop from early position early in the tournament. Why the hell not??? your limp is fine, and when he bumps it to 60 I would call unless you have a lock-down read on him. The $22 game is so weird, that there are actually some steps you can take to assure a cheaper flop. If i'm in your shoes here, I will open with one of those silly "mini-raises" to 30. Im not a big fan of the mini raise, but they do have some times where they are good. And this is one of them I believe. This might get you a cheaper flop.

I would say the only thing to make sure of is that you CAN easily get away from this hand. Too many times you will see people calling all-ins/calling to the river with 22-88 early in the sng with overcards EVERYWHERE, and you simply wonder WHY??? I think they feel as though the initial preflop investment requires them to stay in the hand throughout...who knows?

If you hit a set you will most likely score quite a few chips. Just be able to get away from the 6's.
