SB is 53/16
BTN is 24/10

I need to stop flopping sets on these boards.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (7 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

saw flop

Button ($49.10)
SB ($32.65)
BB ($26)
Hero (UTG) ($50)
MP1 ($83)
MP2 ($47.65)
CO ($33.45)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with 6, 6
Hero bets $2, 3 folds, Button calls $2, SB calls $1.75, 1 fold

Flop: ($6.50) 6, 7, 8 (3 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $4.50, Button raises to $10.50, SB raises to $30.65 (All-In), Hero folds, Button calls $20.15

Turn: ($72.30) J (2 players, 1 all-in)

River: ($72.30) K (2 players, 1 all-in)

Total pot: $72.30 | Rake: $3

i say sweet fold, i wanna see what everyone else says....i feel like button could easily have 9 10 and could still have the flush draw on top of that. it is a really tough lay down but i like it either way.

Deanglow is on a distinguished road
If they are random donks as the stats suggest then its pretty standard call but folding isn't terrible.

i'm not folding.

with reads and a tight player in the pot maybe you can fold, but this is flush draws, over pairs etc enough.

this is why we play low PP isn't it?

Set over set is a cooler. if one of them has 9-10 "nh".

Our E versus a straight aint that terrible, and very often we are in front.

Folding is impressively bad.
A foolish man learns nothing from his mistakes.
A smart man learns only from his own mistakes.
A wise man learns from his own mistakes, and those of the smart man and the fool.

yeah I never fold here, the SB's range is alot wider than you would think. He probably even has overpairs in it that he slowplayed preflop.
"Once we reach a certain level of mastery, we see there are higher levels and challenges. If we are disciplined and patient, we proceed. At each higher level, new pleasures and insights await us--ones not even suspected when we started out. We can take this as far as we want--in any human activity there is always a higher level to which we can aspire."
