Default Fold these 6s PF in middle of $3?

In the process of rebuilding my roll after being hacked (see MTTc), I'm re-introducing myself to SNGs. Standard fold?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (5 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

MP (t1445)
Button (t5620)
SB (t1180)
BB (t3580)
Hero (t3175)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].

Ya this a fold I prob open 88 here tho.

I am tighter than most with PPs in these spots though.

I also almost always fold here...but opening to 2.5xbb isn't horrible. Button and BB are the only two likely to flat call and if they do you, you have huge implied odds if you hit a set.

Based on reads and pushing ranges of MP and SB (shorties) are you calling a push from one of them? That helps in the decision making process as well..

At a $3 I'm definitely folding this. Too many to get a raise through with a hand that will look terrible after the flop.

Also to the last poster, if you hit your set you do not have huge implied odds. There just aren't enough chips on the table to have huge implied odds here.
