Default Overpair, loose-passive wakes up out of nowhere

2.5/5 NL 6-max, Prima. I've been playing fairly aggressive, raising a lot of hands pre-flop, and usually c-betting (though at times against certain opponents I check through if I don't hit, etc.). Table is a mix of loose-passives and LAGs.

UTG ($800, loose-passive) limps, I'm (cover both opponents) in the CO with red AA, and raise to $20. Decent player ($700, loose pre-flop, ok postflop) calls in the BB, UTG calls.

Flop ($60): Kx 6s 2s

BB bets $20, UTG calls, I raise to $80 (who raises? who calls?). BB folds, UTG re-pops me back up to $180.

I see 66, 22 as only possible holdings. Fold? What kind of hand calls that weak bet then 3-bets? Especially with the flush draw on the board ....

wow this is a shi*Ty spot man. i dont think there is much chance u r ahead here, but the action is just wierd. i raise this flop just as u did, then i puke when i get raised and probably force myself to find a fold... the thing is there are really only 3 or 4 hands that i see doing this (66, 22, AsKs, KsXs) and we are ahead of half of these so without a read i fold, with a read i push...
