OMG... poor play, huge pot

Limping is ok, 3-betting is not.

Call the pf raise.

Check/raise the flop.

Check/raise the turn since you fogot to raise the flop.

I would probably call the river. I would consider both raising and folding though. At first I thought raising might be best but now I think I may just be being results oriented since you posted results against the constant advice of bisonbison.

I'm not convinced that my pf play was completely wrong. My analysis will be simplistic however:

There are 6 people total, and I figured everyone would call if I reraised. There are 8.5 SB already, and if everyone calls a reraise by me then there will be 18.5 SB (if the raiser doesn't cap), 2 SB of which I've just put in. So I'm contributing 11%.

Assume my sixes will win everytime I hit a set. That's roughly 12% of the time. So my equity to the pot is 12%. It's probably even higher because I'm almost certainly getting to the turn and the turn is another chance at a set.

So there is a pot equity edge of at least 1%. Reraising if everyone will call and nobody caps is greater EV than calling.

That's how I think it goes, but I'm unsure of how pot equity works. Maybe I'm contributing a massive 17% instead. The example in SSH doesn't make it entirely clear, but it uses a figure obtained like the latter.

Of course, since someone folded it did become lesser EV, maybe negative. I guess I should have expected at least one person to fold. Calling was best.

I don't know where I got the idea that someone folded preflop. Anyway, I think I am contributing 17%. So I'd need 9 people there for a reraise to be correct, unless I'm misunderstanding pot equity.
