Default Overpair gets too much action

Both villains in this hand are pretty bad players, with Button being the worse of the two. Button is a LAG with stats of about 60/8/2 over 50 or so hands. I've seen him overplay several hands at this table and he can be counted on to raise many second best hands. UTG is a bit more reasonable and an average weak player at 46/11.5/0.9 over 200 hands. I haven't seen him get out of line, though his high VPIP means he's a bit more aggressive than you might expect.

My table image is probably that of a LAG. I've been getting decent cards, and for about 4-5 orbits there were 3 loose to my right which resulted in lot of isolation raises. I haven't really gotten out of line (in my opinion) or shown down cheese, but that doesn't mean these players like my constant raising.

The flop call/cap is serious strength, but I have a decent hand in a large pot. Is it time to lay down?
