Default TT How can I protect my hand

This is a hand from a Canterbury 8/16 game a few days ago. I have T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] in MP. UTG folds, UTG + 1 folds, MP1 limps, I raise, 2 folds, CO cold calls, Button 3 bets, SB calls, BB folds, everyone calls.

Some reads:
SB is a very decent player, however he tends to be too loose preflop.
MP1 is far too loose preflop, but isn't completely unreasonable postflop, perhaps a little passive.
CO is a typical loose passive.
Button has only been in a couple orbits, but hasn't been in many pots or gotten out of line.

My image is probably bordering on rocklike as I've been pretty cold to this point.

Flop: 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

What should be my plan given my poor relative position?

I say just checkraise the button and go from there.

Default Flop Action

Ok, my plan originally was to checkraise the button and hopefully be able to force out one player.

Now for the actual action

SB checks, MP1 checks, I check, CO bets, Button calls, SB calls, MP1 folds, I...

Call. The value of your hand will change a lot on the turn methinks. Right now you are ahead but that could change if a spade or overcard comes. I don't see how you can protect this hand. If an innocuous turn card comes, I might even forego the check-raise and just lead out...
