Early in FTOP's #1

i have about 5k, a little less
BB has about 5k too

blinds at 80-160 i believe

I have 66 In middle position, guy limped infront of me, i limped as well, the button also limped SB called, and bb checked,

5 to the flop

the flop came...

456

BB bets about 240

it is folded to me, i raise to 740..

He ships the the rest of his stack, which has me covered by about 200

...what do i do?

you have the toppest set and there are a lot of hands that you beat that shove here for value(not to mention stupid 7x spazzouts). Easy snapcall.
edit: Oh and sorry you lost

the BB bets 240, it is folded, i raise to 740, it is then folded back to him, who shoves in about 5k aka the rest of his stack

Yeah, instacall. 55 and 44 does this as well as 78 against which you have 30% equity.

Probably TT+ and two pair combo's shove this flop as well actually. You aren't seriously considering folding?
