Default PL08 $2/$4 hand

I played this hand last night and wondered what people thought of this play. As you can see, I was the BB and I flopped the underboat, but at that point only quads can beat me, as I have all the matching undercards (all 3 sixes) in my hand. I figured with 6 players in I could get action around to me with possibly a pot bet from a "naked" 8 and maybe a low draw caller, and that with a pot re-raise I could take it down or at least be a favorite against the range of probable hands, and force someone to make an uncomfortable call. As it turned out, I was against one of the relatively worst case scenarios, in that the player with an 8, AND A2 is correct to call me. Even so, 2 dimes had me as a slight favorite.

Does anyone think I misplayed this, if so, what do you think is a better line, and why?
