In the previous hand, Button bluff-raised on the river when the board paired.

....calls and check-calls the river.

If you were gonna raise the turn, why didn't you cap the flop?

edit: And I fold when it's 2 back to me on the turn.

Hero is stuck in the middle what if the raising war continues on the river?

I thought of that, but I can't lay big hands down against extremely LAGish opponents. It might be a leak in my game, but folding and having to watch those two goobs show down KQ and AJ would drive me up a wall.

His only read is on the button, and it's not a very strong read.

The title of his post is KK vs LAGs (plural). I'm going to take him on his word there.

I figured capping the flop wouldn't cause anyone to fold. However, it probably would've made the hand easier to play.

how laggy are they? Unless they are complete maniacs, i'm folding the turn when it's capped. The chances your behind plus the chance that you will pay more than 1 bet at the river make calling here all the more unattractive.

They both overplayed their hands but it got me to fold the winner.
