Onlly just sat down... so my reads were based on typical .5/1 Party players

babalucha posts small blind [$0.25].
PFLUGH is sitting out.
vbussell posts big blind [$0.5].
** Dealing down cards **
Dealt to zenbitz [ :Qc: :Qd: ]
PFLUGH has left the table.
Fiesta2 folds.
Bavin777 calls [$0.5].
superchops70 calls [$0.5].
Gregor_Samsa has joined the table.
zenbitz raises [$1].
whan48 folds.
masterk7 folds.
Cliffordton calls [$1].
babalucha calls [$0.75].
vbussell calls [$0.5].
Bavin777 calls [$0.5].
superchops70 calls [$0.5].
OK, those calls mean nothing, except probably nothing premium or I'd mighta gotten a reraise
** Dealing Flop ** [ 6h, Td, Jh ]
babalucha bets [$0.5].
vbussell calls [$0.5].
Bavin777 calls [$0.5].
superchops70 calls [$0.5].
zenbitz raises [$1].
Cliffordton folds.
babalucha raises [$1].
vbussell folds.
Bavin777 folds.
superchops70 calls [$1].
zenbitz calls [$0.5].
Hmmm... I am thinking baba hit a set. I call but I am ready to lay down
superchops... well, he could have anything

** Dealing Turn ** [ Kh ]
babalucha checks.
superchops70 bets [$1].
zenbitz folds.
babalucha calls [$1].
OK, baba fears the flush - and it looks like super got one. I pickup an open ended straight draw, which beats a set but not a flush. Even a Q is not a clean out... and the Qh is a split. I'm out.
** Dealing River ** [ Ad ]
babalucha checks.
superchops70 bets [$1].
babalucha calls [$1].
superchops70 shows [ 6d, Kd ] two pairs, kings and sixes.
babalucha doesn't show [ Js, 8c ] a pair of jacks.
superchops70 wins $14.75 from the main pot with two pairs, kings and sixes.

Ooops.

elipsesjeff is an unknown quantity at this point
I think you are giving your players too much credit. Jack High on the flop with QQ is exactly what you want. You need to raise and reraise to make sure all those chasing flushes get -EV.

Just because you get 3-bet doesn't mean to always gaurantee a set, especially in limit. You should cap here and force him to realize you got the goods and he doesnt. A 3-bet may occur with TPTK.

After that king comes I'd be weary too. You do have 3 hearts on the board and an overcard. But you also have a redraw to the open ended straight.

You should have check-called to the river if you were too worried. The pot was of decent size and they were giving you outs.
