I think that I would have called this hand, I think that you have to be pretty sure that villian has a full house to fold this, but I would like to hear what other people say about this hand.

I guess you're beating 6-4 and 6-2. That's about it. Standard fold without read.

what hands does villian have here? 88 or 55? I would be suspicious of this because villian *should* make a raise on the flop. That is an awefully coordinated board... but its true that your average fish will slow play any made set to death.

maybe A 6 makes more sense? 9 7 also possible I suppose this being the first level. This is a very narrow range though. Villian could have a hand like 99, A 8 or even AA/KK.

Why call the turn if you think you are beat? Or did you only think you were beat on the river?

Villian limped pf. His range is wide as hell. A-6s to 7-6s, 6-5s to 6-4s, 9-7s, 88, 55. OP is way behind that range. Any weaker hand should be checking behind on the river, except for air/busted draw. But air/busted draw would be foolish to raise on the turn. Like I said before, standard fold without read.

A high pocket pair would not have open limped pf in middle position.

Im not sure why I called the turn besides being willing to go broke if I hit a 67 or my open ender.
