SB is LAG. I think preflop is preety standard. I raised te flop to get rid of the unknown button. SB just calls what means he has nothing or something really big.
I don't know if the turn bet is OK, it's likely my hand is still the best (can I fold being raised?).
River: I think I beat SB and Button won't overcall without an A (?) so a raise is good here. Calling the 3-bet is OK? I'm preety sure I'm beaten here although SB is LAG.

I would take the free card on the turn. SB could have you crushed, and losing button really doesn't help you here. I don't think betting even buys any outs, as AJ, A5 are calling down with 10BB in the pot. River looks fine to me.

odd that you can't shake button. I wouldn't be suprised to see him showing down something cheesey like A5. I probably play it the same, even on the turn. I'd bet trying to fold out anyone with a random hand that might hit.

One thought is what kind of read on the SB do you have. In my experience, if there are limpers, the SB isn't raising without a premium holding. I think the worst hand you could put him on is a pocket pair, or AJ. Given the action, I wouldn't be surprised to be shown AQ AK or AJ by him.

I don't agree with this. Why do you want a random unpaired hand to fold? You have an edge drawing to top pair with AQ against such an opponent.
