You 3-bet the turn but check-called the river? Why?

That river 6 helps nobody who should still be in the hand.

If you felt your hand was strong enough to 3-bet the turn, I'd bet out here or check-raise if I were absolutely sure the player after me would bet.

Did you notice that small part where MP1 caps the turn? This COMPLETELY changes what he's likely to have and it's very unlikely that the hero is ahead here. He's making crying calls.

If MP1 had just called the 3-bet, that would be a different story altogether.

MP1 cold-called the flop and suddenly raises the turn with the SB behind him?

You are so dead. Call him down. Do not 3-bet the turn. Do not pass go. Do not collect $200.

He's slowplaying a set. Or possibly he has AQ. You need to verify his story, but you can't bet this hand again. Unless he is a very atypical player you are beat. Well I suppose he could have queens up if he's that loose.

[Munga30]

Results: MP1 shows QQ for the turned set.

Ugh. I made his mistake as profitable as possible. I *want* cold calls like that, though, so I guess I have to suck it up.

Lesson learned: Not many players are getting tricky with a draw here and even if he might be, call down.

What would you think he has at this point?
