Default Pocket 6\'s from UTG+1

No read on this table yet, had seen maybe two hands.

Should I have even called pre-flop?

call PF.. this was easy.
fold the flop

a call is no good (playing for the turned set). a raise is dubious at this table since you won't fold enough players to win unimproved consistently since all but the 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] is a scary turn card. also note that the first player to act bet into 4 others. that's generally not a bluff.

I am interested in hearing your reasoning behind calling the flop bet. If you think you are ahead, raise. If you don't, fold. You don't have the odds to draw to the 2 other 6's.

That's what I'm working on. I make plays that I KNOW are flawed, but I make them anyway.

Major leak when it comes to a pair of any kind. I'm trying to work my way through this one with public embarassment. [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

Fold it preflop, you have no read on the table. I dont like folding pocket pairs either but you have to do it.

After the flop SB bets he probably has a 10(obviously less likely after his turn call), you are likely already beat and your odds of improving are slim.
