I think betting just bloats the pot in what started out as a simple limped pot, and has the potential to turn it into a monster that never needed to be.

Info on villain would also be really helpful in this spot.
Flop pot shows strength on this board. Do you think villian will bluff any significant number of times.

Also what about missed value against a FD, which these villians never seem to fold?

A 6 can be an action card on the river. I dont see any other rivers that payoff.

Also whats the plan against a flop repot?
