Was told that I was outplayed |

I don't have the hand history, but it's the first hand of lower buy-in SnG.
I had 99 in EP, so I call, with about 4 to the flop.
I'm waiting to hit trips or to see high cards and fold.
Flop: 632r
Now I am about 90% that I have the best hand. I'm last to act. Check, check, player to my right bets a measly 60, I reraise to 250. Two folds, and player to my right calls.
Now I'm worried about a straight (player was BB) or a slowplayed higher pair.
Turn: A (no straight draws for anyone)
Now I'm sure I'm beaten. BB checks. I consider trying to steal here, but that card was alittle too scary. I check. River: rag
Now, I check, and BB checks behind, and I think I may have the hand won.
BB had: A6
I mention that BB called a reraise with a pair of 6s, and him/her and another person said I was outplayed.
Actually, I feel the BB is awful. Calls with 6s, then doesn't try to get even a little money out of me?
What do you think.

Both of you played it fine on the flop- he had top pair top kicker. You had overpair... he just sucks when he doesn't try to get more money out of you.
Don't know how anyone in that hand was "outplayed"

You can rest assured that nobody has ever outplayed anybody in texas hold'em by this action after the flop: raise - call / check-check /check-check. 
He was a little silly for not betting into you, but that's what greed gets you...being outdrawn and less profit.
I think you must have mistyped the river action though, he can't have checked behind you.
And raise those nines preflop!

Think I should raise with them in 2nd P on the first hand of a low SnG?

I wouldn't have a problem with that. But then again I really wouldn't have a problem calling the BB or folding them either.
:D

He called 250 with the worst hand.
You called 0 with the worst hand.
Not sure how that would be outplayed.....

What makes me so mad is that guy/girl had no clue what he/she was doing.
I can understand calling if I led out, but he/she made a weak bet of 60, so I reraise 250 on top of it. Would any of you think you were good? I could have had a pocket pair up to 9s, could have hit a set with a lower PP, could have hit a straight, etc. THEN, he/she checks it down with two pair.
Honestly, his/her call after my reraise scared the crap out of me, and I would have folded to a rereraise, then folded to a bet from there on out, but he/she didn't even TRY to get some money.
Oh, and this person said my reraise was a wussy raise. Yeah, okay.
