Default AQo flops second pair + backdoor draws

MP1 was loose-passive. Over about 50 hands, the button was at about 40% VP$IP and 15% PFR.

I don't like the turn or the river here at all.

The check-call on the turn seems weak to me in spite of the 3-flush on the board.

I went for the check raise on the river here because the button could usually be counted on to bet if checked to even if he didn't have a hand. Even though it worked, I still think that betting out is way better since there's a pretty good chance that the other two players (even the usually aggressive button) will elect to take a free showdown given the very coordinated nature of the board.

All in all, I don't think I played this very well at all.
