will my ice age ever come? (huge pot KK 10/20)

[___]

UTG+1 is a 30/20/1.5 lagtag over 150 hands. I noted that on a previous hand I 3-bet AK preflop from the small blind in a three way pot and he raised my flop bet with 77 on a QJx flop to take a free card on the turn. I'll leave the interpretation of this in the context of the hand to the reader.

CO is 32/25/2.5 over 200 hands and quite aggro (obviously). He's on a losing streak and I think it's exacerbated by his over aggression, but any number of other factors could also be at play.

Button is 28/15/1.8 and I was very surprised to see him cold call like this. He's demonstrated himself to be a solid player and not done anything out of line in our 65 hands together.

This hand confused me, and I was playing above my comfort level because I was able to take the jesus seat beside two crazy lags. Somehow they both folded in this hand though. Analysis of all streets please.

In this type of situation (with the capper/cc to our right) I prefer to bet/3-bet the flop and then lead the turn...

Button's gotta have something like AK, JJ-TT here preflop, right?

[Peter Harris]

c/3b flop, lead turn.

EDIT: ok, and on the turn. If you're raised you can then start to evaluate JJ or AA. I think the latter would cap the flop, so I may b/c b/c both turn and river i think, off the top of my head.

2ND EDIT: I see the fact that cold calling the flop sets up the turn c/r actually, which is helpful for defining the later streets. However, it's a protection play against a hand that probably doesn't need protecting against.
