66 multiway pot

Very loose passive table. Pretty sure betting both the turn and river was a spew. (Can't get my absolute hands converted properly at FTR or neildewhurst)

dont limp sixes in after an ep limper, you're giving up waaay too much, especially at a loose passive table.

when you limp, you're encouraging others to limp in after you. With a low/mid pp that's disaster in a shorthanded setting, as you'll have to dodge a lot more overcards that wont ever ever fold when they make a better hand.

A better strat is to isolate the limper by raising it up. If you get coldcalled or the pot goes 4 ways you can play the flop for a set. More likely though, you'll get headsup and have an opportunity to take the pot down on the flop or turn.

don't immediate put yourself in a situation where you're drawing. Take the lead with a made but vulnerable hand and look to end the action early.

as played, check the river. you're very likely getting called down with a pair at that point. you're never folding a better hand, and you're only valuebetting against Ax hands that probably ddint limp preflop in the first place.

Yeah i see what your mean. My natural inclination would be to isolate here. I'm following MeBenhoe's sh'd hand chart. Might need some adjustments.
