Raise to about 120. Those guys want to see a flop; make them pay.

Raise bigger on the flop also. Close to pot.

140 pre.

Early stages in a $3.50 I go 3-4x + 1x for every limper.

i normally go 120 , 140 for a raise. Sometimes if i know a few of them really crazy and there was raise and alot of callers i jam and get called by 77.

A raise to 140 will do almost the same job as a raise to 80, except you win more money.

Postflop is fine, except I'd just jam the turn myself.

Jam the turn on this board? Seemed risky, I should have bet more on the flop but was thinking folding the turn?

I don't think folding the turn is going to be a positive play long term.

Villains will do that with too much you beat. The main thing is to go much bigger on the flop; bigger on the flop and the hand plays totally differently.

You should almost always jam the turn here. If you are questioning why you would jam the turn, why did you check and then call once 2 people have shown tons of strength? The 6 of diamonds isn't the greatest card ever in the deck, but it's pretty damn good. People will still stack off here with top pair or a flush draw etc etc.
