Saturday's 3.7k hand session

I played a ~4.5 hour, 3,700 hand session on Saturday. I ran slightly bad (not going to post the graph, but I earned more Sklansky bucks than actual, and had a couple coolers like KK versus AA with few reciprocal spots). I still ended up winning just under 3 buyins, at 3.7 ptBB/100, so I'm happy with how it went.

Since I haven't done so in awhile, here's a hand for discussion:

Villian is a 41/3/0.8/120 fish.

Seat #1 is the button
 
Seat 1:  Ronfar3  ($28.90 in chips)
Seat 3:  1040gal  ($39.45 in chips)
Seat 4:  iezzie manni  ($11.25 in chips)
Seat 5:  gilbert_dh  ($22 in chips)
Seat 6:  lee676  ($24.85 in chips)
Seat 7:  fuerto  ($28.85 in chips)
Seat 9:  1337phynix  ($24.80 in chips)

1040gal posts the small blind $0.10
iezzie manni posts the big blind $0.25

The River: [7d 6h Th Qc | Ah]
 

The Showdown:
 
iezzie manni shows 6d 6c

Ronfar3 shows Qh Ks


Ronfar3 won $21.75 from pot


Hand Summary:
 
The Final Board: [7d 6h Th Qc Ah]


Ronfar3 (button) showed Qh Ks and won $21.75 with a straight, Ten to Ace

iezzie manni (big blind) showed 6c 6d and lost with three of a kind, Sixes


Obviously, I got the money in with the worst of it here, and was saved by the river completing my draw. Would anyone have just called the extremely weak turn bet here? Against his range, I think I'm well ahead on the turn, and definitely have fold equity. I'm torn between thinking I played this hand fight, despite it being -EV against the opponents actual hand (but in my opinion, very much +EV against his hand range).

For kicks, here is what Equilator has to say regarding my equity versus my opponent's range:

Villian: 34.558% 99-JJ, 66, A2s+, KTs+, Q8s+, J8s+, T8s+, ATo+, KTo+, Q9o+, J9o+, T9o
Hero: 65.442% KsQh

I think I played it ok!

This hand doesn't make sense the way it is posted. Your hand does not equal a straight. Did you hand type this or something?

Just wondering...enjoying the blog very much.
