What hand do you give EyE if he is playing that TAG?

Everyone limped pre?? So you give EyE 34 or 55 or 66 on button

I put one of them on Arag flush draw....

Easy push. Your set of 2's can still beat alot of hands. Someone probably has a flush draw, maybe one of them limped with a big overpair. If its a case of set over set I generally don't give opponents credit for that, I would still think the set is best. Two pair is also a possibility. Let me ask you this. You limped with your pair of dueces. You can't get a flop much better than that for your hand. You hit what you were looking for, push it all in.

I figured I was behind at least one one of them. The best case scenario given the betting would have been with one opponent with a straight and the other with a flush draw (which I think is unlikely with all the raising). That situation is pretty close to a call.

Worst case I'm against a higher set and I'm drawing to one out.

Results for those who need to know.

kelly_kabob: folds
eYeLovErAgS: raises $154.85 to $242.85 and is all-in
iron man180: calls $154.85
*** TURN *** [2d 6c 5d] [Jh]
*** RIVER *** [2d 6c 5d Jh] [6d]
*** SHOW DOWN ***
iron man180: shows [5c Ah] (two pair, Sixes and Fives)
eYeLovErAgS: shows [3s 4s] (a straight, Deuce to Six)
eYeLovErAgS collected $508.70 from pot
*** SUMMARY ***
Total pot $511.70 | Rake $3
Board [2d 6c 5d Jh 6d]
Seat 1: bostonhitman (big blind) folded on the Flop
Seat 2: iron man180 showed [5c Ah] and lost with two pair, Sixes and Fives

That was an interesting hand, but good read and good fold on your part. I guess eYe's stats don't lie I just give him credit for a better range with those stats, but 34 is good....lol
