Sorry to nit-pick, I know this wasn't the point of the post, and I don't know the rest of this hand, but shouldn't we be folding mid-pairs on the turn against aggression from the described players?

As for the hand, I can see a case for capping the flop. However, our equity may not be as as good as it might be because of the flop 3-bet -- some of our 2-pair/trip outs could be tainted, we may even be missing a flush out. I guess it's pretty close between calling/capping.

Against the described scaredy-cats, I don't see any other way to play the turn. It would be awful to see the turn checked through. It probably gains the same number of bets as successfully check-raising the button anyhow.
