Default Flopped set of sixes- too aggressive?

Mp1 in this hand is someone that I follow around a lot on Stars. Let's call him the LAGgy Vermont hippie, because that's what he is. He totally overplays hands- he will cap flush draws on the turn heads up, etc. He is very loose-passive preflop(doesn't raise much at all), but he becomes a total LAG postflop. So Vermont Hippie got pretty aggressive on this hand. Was the river cap too much, or do you play it the same? I thought that he would play a hand like AJ, or a hand like JT this way. He would also play hands like J6/J2 this way.

Raise the flop. Rest is fine. He is a LAG, you beat most of the hands he would play this way. Take the chance. Lose big or win big. Be a man, weasel.

Yeah I wondered about raising the flop. If there had been more than one person to act behind me then would you just call? This is not a very worrisome board.

If you lost... you didnt lose enough.

Raise Flop...hope for a cap. You are behind TT or JJ...if he wouldnt raise that preflop...good job on table selection.

Turn Good Job... still only behind TT or JJ

River Good Job... still only behind TT,JJ, runner flush, or so wildly played 45.

If you lost this, then this guy is sorry. You will lose set over set rarely.

I dont think I stop raise for even someone that has never raised or bet before. The chances of TT or JJ is just to small.
