After looking at this hand...should I really only be afraid of one set...the pocket 6s? The others would have been misplayed preflop.

Party Poker 0.50/1 Hold'em (10 handed)

Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with 5/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, 5/images/graemlins/heart.gif.
UTG calls, Hero calls, UTG+2 calls, MP1 folds, MP2 calls, MP3 folds, CO folds, Button calls, SB folds, BB checks.

Flop: (6.50 SB) 5/images/graemlins/spade.gif, J/images/graemlins/spade.gif, 6/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="blue">(6 players) </font>

I think raising or calling the river are both good options. I really can't decide if one is better than the other.

3-bet that flop. He didn't limp with JJ and there's a ton of hands that raise here that you beat. If you think he's got 66, you have to raise to find out.

I bet this all the way. The hands that beat you in this spot don't limp preflop. To me, all you fear is 66 and I take that chance.

The reason I didn't 3 bet this was, one I'm not gonna push out any flush drawers, and two, since he is in front of me...I want to raise him on the turn to get more money. If I 3 bet him he may not bet into me on the turn thus lower net money. I think the river is where I question the most, and well not while I have more time to look at it, I do think pocket 6s is the only hand I can worry about. And they will not have that than they will.
