I was mystified as to the holdings of my opponents. Any guesses? How would other people play this hand? SB is loose aggro and no real reads on button

Tough flop when the pot is so big... but you're probably against 2 underpairs... unless they've been known to call huge raises with suited stuff. AKs or KQs also a posibility, but I don't think you're getting away from this hand unless you fold the flop, which would be horrible.

Edit: I think both people are going to stick around until the river, so calling down isn't a bad idea.

Yea, I figured I couldn't fold the flop, as that would be too weak, but I didn't want to push and race against random heart draws. I figured I'd wait for a safe card on the turn and push, which I did. Is this line of thinking correct here?
