No read, unknown. i had no idea what my opponent had in this hand. Villain could have set, better two pairs or Ace with good kicker. what should i do on the turn when facing 3 bet? Multiway limped pot is surely dangerous and kind of unreadable.

 There are 3 combinations of 66 and 3 combinations of TT. There are 6 combinations of A6 and AT each. For a one-pair ace, say A7 for example, there are 8 combinations.

Because villain is unknown, and knowing that you probably have quite a few hands on the players at this level, I have to assume that there's a pretty good chance he has a bare ace here.

I think calling the turn and then calling the river is fine, and probably best. That is, unless you think he would call with something like AJ here, which I personally think is unlikely.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

i folded to his 3 bet thinking that the average ppl wouldnt reraise on the turn with top pair OK kicker hand and there are also more combinations in his 3 bet range if i 'm behind. Another factor is i 've got to face another big river bet(the hammer of the future) if i just flat call here.
too nitty?
