I think your preflop call was fine. You had position and a chance to stack villain with a set. I think checking it down was fine also.

I call preflop here. I am usually taking a stab at this pot if its checked to me. If not on the flop then definately having a crack at it on the turn.

Fold PF? Thats some weak tight junk at this level. Played it find IMO. Are you really worried about a 4X the BB UTG raise at the 6.50's?

I guess I can see a call, but since it is from UTG I usually play it pretty tight.

any idea of his range ?
the call looks good, i would have probed for a little over 1/2 the pot on the flop then checked it down if I got a call.

You're usually calling PF for set value, I fold lower pairs for 4bbs, but call for 3bb raise.

I think you played it fine.
