As others have said, my standard play here would be to 3-bet if the Ace was a club, and call if the 6 was a club.

So you are basically betting that he has a worse two pair rather than a set in the case where you 3-bet.

Assuming he coldcalls only with a suited A (which is reasonable):

A4s - 2 hands
A6s - 2 hands
A9s - 2 hands
AJ - 4 hands

66 - 3 hands
44 - 3 hands
99 - 3 hands
JJ - 3 hands (i'll discount to 1 b/c no PF 3-bet)
AA - 3 hands (discount to 1 also)

This makes the 3-bet look bad. I am assuming you think that we would have heard from the sets earlier. But wouldn't we also have heard from the two pairs -- even more so, since those hands are more vulnerable when played slow?

What am I missing?

Thanks,
