Default TT on an A66 board - Lost

I would either bet-fold the turn or check-call the turn/river. I don't think I'm ever check-folding the turn.

my thoughts exactly.. I dont see any reason to just completely give up on the turn.

He could have a smaller pocket pair, and some people will call with just about anything on the flop, so I think you're letting this go to early.

I would bet the turn.

I considered bet-folding and possibly I'm overestimating my opponent but I don't see why an ace would ever raise the turn here, especially one that was savvy enough not to raise the flop. So if I get raised, I could well be looking at a lower pair that's trying to push me off a pair that's not an ace, especially with the third 6 on board, I don't feel comfortable bet-folding.

I'm fine with check-calling the turn but the river is really going to be a crying call. Maybe check-calling the turn and bet-folding the river is good here, I have no idea how often I'm going to get bluff raised though so I guess check-calling the river is better.
