Default 3-way with TP but a bad kicker

I've been playing HU with Button for a few hands, and he seems to be loose-passive. In fact, he didn't bet any street OOP w/ trips or a flush in a previous hand. BB just sat down.

I'm not really sure why I bet the flop. Maybe it's because I haven't played in awhile. I think I should either check/call to the river or C/R the flop. Given my flop bet, should I be getting away from this hand on the turn?

any aggressive player will raise your donk on the flop with anything even a mid pocket pair. If you check raise and he three bets then youve got problems and if the other guy calls two more cold then you could probably fold.

Yeah, I check-raise this flop. If you get 3-bet, or raised on the turn, then I think you can safely fold it.

if the button is passive I would raise this out of the SB. Is that fair enough?

Anyway....in your position I would call down.

Is it worth three betting this flop?
