Standard? - small pair in SB 3/6
 
Both players are loose and passive.
I started questioning my play lately in this blind structure because it turns to be spewing chips very often.
I might be better off forfeiting my $1?

I'm hardly experienced with the 3/6 blind structure, but I don't think raising or just completing would be bad. I think I just call her and try to flop a set. I could easily be way off though. With the preflop raise though, I think I lead on the flop and give up immediately to a raise.

You would be better off calling PF. If you hit a set, great. If not, c/f. I would only raise this if BT was very loose and BB was tight.

Limp or raise I think you have to get out of that hand the 1st bet by anyone with that board.

I like to limp in with small pp in SB. You won't get button to fold, maybe BB will fold but you will still have to play it out of position.

I think you should've check-folded it on the turn aswell.

Limp preflop. Check/fold flop and turn, you missed.

It's going to be tough to get people to fold on this board. You've got lot's of flush/straight possiblilities here. I think that this is the wrong time to bluff here. I don't know if you can even call it much of a semibluff as both your outs put a 3 flush on board. I think that you just got an awfull flop and turn card for your small pp and are going to have to give this one up.

I think I limp hear pf too but I don't think a raise is that bad. If BB defends too much then I think it's a clear that you should only complete but if there is a decent chance that he'll fold and get you HU with a weak player then I think it's worth it. At 3/6 the blind structure varies depending on where you play. Some sites have SB as $1 and others have SB as $1.50. I'm not sure how Party's structured.

I just dont like this at all, especially at this level, its -EV for sure, call preflop, set bet....
55 has nearly no value multiway, you NEED to set it up and this doesnt happen often enough to justify your raise

You don't NEED to hit a set with 55 to bet out on the flop.
