Default AA with a scary board

Both of these players seem solid, but i have no good read on them..

I wonder how my play is, and how do you play this flop?

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ Hero (6 max, 6 handed) converter

MP ($25.63)
CO ($118.73)
Button ($29.63)
SB ($52.70)
Hero ($49.50)
UTG ($50)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $0.25.
UTG calls $0.50, MP calls $0.50, CO calls $0.50, Button calls $0.50, SB (poster) completes, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $3.5</font>, UTG folds, MP calls $3.50, CO calls $3.50, Button calls $3.50, SB folds.

Flop: ($17) J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $8</font>, MP folds, CO calls $8, Button calls $8.

Turn: ($41) 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
Hero checks, CO checks, Button calls $17.63 (All-In), Hero folds, CO folds.

Final Pot: $58.63

Bet 10-15 on the flop. I like checking turn, if you bet bigger on the flop the all in is small enough to call.

I'd call this all day. I think the only hand button will show you that beats you here is AT. A set or two pair would definetly have to raise that flop b/c of the drawing possibility. Most likely here's what I think button is thinking.

He's holding a hand like KT or Kxs and decided to play it cautiously b/c of all the high cards and because of the bet/call before him. After you both check it to him on the turn, he decides that his pair is good and shoves it in. Plus, the fact that you have 4 clean outs if you are behind (and 5 more outs against two pair) and the fact that his all in bet is so small in comparison to the pot makes folding here absolutely criminal imo.
