    Looks pretty standard to me... Either you get coolered by quad 6s or you draw out on someone with 99. Either way only two hands that could possibly be in their range are beating you at the point where you shove unless someone made an absolutely horrid call with A6s or 96s.
    [00:29] <daven> dc, why not check turn behind
    [00:30] <DC> daven
    [00:30] <DC> on my hand?
    [00:30] <daven> yep
    [00:30] <DC> because I am drunk
    [00:30] <daven> nice reason
    [00:30] <daven> no further questions
    [00:30] <yaawn> ^^Lol

    Problem officer...?

    Too small a 3bet, you practically deserve to get beat by A6s/66/99 (although obviously you outdrew them)

    Next time raise up to 3/3.25 with one player and 3.5/4 with a raise and a call

    I agree with eragotte, the 3bet seems really small. With action in front of you, you can be more aggressive imho.

    Your right. He had 99. I only realized how small of a 3-bet I made after the hand and it should've cost me but I outdrew him.
