In this hand, UTG+1 is loose passive and Button is fairly solid.

Great - I've picked up a few more outs. But I've got ace-high with two players still in. I've seen the LP call down with alot of crap before, and I'm uncertain if I can buy the pot from him. Would you bet or check here?

I don't think I would. Hard to put button on a cold-calling range preflop with not many in (if he is indeed solid) but I'd say you're folding equity for both him and the loose-passive is minimal. Not to mention there aren't many draws on the flop (T9, QT maybe).

Changed my last statement. Not sure what to make of button's line overall.
