Default Terrible set play

Unless I missed something and did in fact play it like a genius. I vote donk play.

Pot limit $25 10-handed. One orbit completed and villian has a green light next to his name, which means donkey. he's $25, I have $25

One limper, villian raises to $1.50, I call with 66 and it's heads up into the flop.

Flop comes down 864 rainbow with $3.50 in the pot and villian bets $2, I miniraise him for the hell of it and he calls.

Turn is a Q, suit not important. Villian checks, I check.

River ($11.50)is a 2, villian checks, I bet $10 and he calls.

Is this a nice way of mixing up one's play with a set? My usual plan is to throw lots of chips in the middle and pray for callers.

checking on the turn was rather lame.

2/3 pot it.

2/3 pot or more the river.

$10 on the turn and the rest of your stack on the river. As soon as you hit the 6 on the flop your first thought should be how do I get it all in the middle.

Maybe at NL against certain villians. Maybe. You just don't get sets that often, and when you do flop one, you usually win the pot. Sets are a huge moneymaker, and the only way to make money is throw it in the middle and hope people call.

Also, this is PL. You got to build the pot here.
