Note villain's stacksize.
Pre-flop is standard.
Flop, I'm always c-betting here. The check-raise is interesting and my aggro self wants to push.
Assuming standard and slightly loose ranges of the BB - 22-JJ, SCs, Axs

I look like an overpair or AK/KQ c-bet. Villain isn't scared, but probably likes his hand with 77+. If I push I look like AA and doubt I get a call from any hands I beat. If I call it's a $58 pot and villain has less than a psb left - meaning I'm getting it in. Folding feels nasty weak. There are a lot of 6s in villain's range given his line. I also have to consider CO...

Thoughts?
Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $1 BB (9 handed) Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

MP1 ($96.25)
MP2 ($67)
Hero ($155.80)
CO ($108)
Button ($36.50)
SB ($58)
BB ($100)
UTG ($100)
UTG+1 ($82.45)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with J, J.
2 folds, MP2 calls $1, Hero raises to $4.5, CO calls $4.50, 1 fold, SB calls $4, 1 fold, MP2 calls $3.50.

Flop: ($19) 6, 6, 5 (5 players)
SB checks, MP2 checks, Hero bets $11, CO calls $11, SB raises to $22, MP2 folds, hero????

Raise more pre-flop.
Slightly bigger flop bet.

$15 flop c-bet and shove over small stack's c/r. There's not a lot you can do here but felt it with your over pairs.. it'd be cooler if either sb or CO turned over 55 ,QQ+ or trip 6.

I do. Even if he did have a hand this time. Against a full stack unknown it would be closer but my experience is these medium stacks minraise/fold to a shove a high percentage.

wow!! if you wanna fold to a 4 bet, whats the point of 3 bet raising in this spot? I never fold to a 4 bet after sticking in half effective starting stack on this flop.

I'm still confused by what you mean but 3bet/folding is terrible bad because they can be shoving draws.

I would shrug and fold the flop, for what it's worth.
