Default Re: 66 on paired board

I would fold on the flop after you get 3-betted. Unless this person really overplays hands like AK/AQ, you're getting soundly beating.

Note that I do love you raising with 66 here because it let's you know where you're at. But once you get 3-betting here, you need to fold and not lose any more money.

This is the problem with "raising for information". You make the pot so big that you almost have to call another bet on the flop getting 14:1 with good implied odds and some stoopid backdoor straight options. I would peal one here because we can make back 8 BB should we hit the money card. Also, we are closing the action so we don't have to worry about a cap.

I don't think that 14:1 is good enough giving implied odds you do hit a 6/7/9 on the turn. I think you need about 18:1 to call here, even though you are closing the action here.
