Middle pocket pairs - how you play them?

I was wondering about your strategy when having cards like 66 to 99.

I'm usually pretty carefull on pre-flop and only limp. I fold when someone raises. After the flop if I hit set then I put some pot-size bet and continue betting on turn and river but otherwise I continue my pre-flop strategy and check or call small bets waiting for set to hit or fold if someone raises.

How do you play them?

Aways Raise in late position, if you hit on flop, try to finish before turn in all in!

Using mostly limping in if nobody have raised nothing big before me. And in the flop of course waiting the set and playing with that, but very carefully. Just fast fold if i don't get set on the flop.

I always limp in preflop, if in flop is a high card i fold. When I get three of kind on flop I waant to get a big pot, I play agressive, and move allin in turn or river.
