Default Re: PP 3/6 6max flopped set, but feel uneasy on river.

3-betting is not good in this spot with the UTG already described. Calling isn't bad at all, as long as you're prepared to checkraise a lot of flops to try to get it HU with the retard. I'd probably 3-bet 88+ here, but 3-betting 77 when UTG won't fold and you'll just bloat the pot OOP is a bit much. As long as you're not playing nosetnobet, you'll be fine coldcalling here. Losing the initiative sucks, but if you're willing to c/r quite a few flops, it's probably a bit better than 3-betting.

Postflop is very good.

Just so that it's clear, UTG is the retard, button is the tough player. How would me checkraising the flop get me heads up with UTG, or were my original thoughts not clear enough and confusing?

I was planning on a checkraise, though, if I didn't hit my set to push UTG out and hope that I could make fancy-pants plays against a thinking button that may have had overcards.
