squeezed between agressive and passive
Button is passive calling station. Calls even at the end when he has the nuts. This is the BB first hand at the table (no read). Should I have folded this on the flop?

Re: squeezed between agressive and passive
Can you explain the raise?
Your equity here is somewhere around 33% and there's 3 in the pot. I struggle to justify the raise. You might be after information, but the button will call regardless, and the BB is a complete unknown. The 3-bet most likely says you're beaten, but first hand he could simply be making your acquaintance. An ace on the board says you probably wont win unimproved, but it also says you could make a bucket if you make trips (but don't forget the poss. wheel and 4 flush). I'd try and see the turn for 1 SB here and fold unimproved.

Re: squeezed between agressive and passive
I call down on flop + turn + river excluding improvement. Raising doesn't do much here. Eh I may even fold the flop but I'd really have to be convinced this guy's pretty passive.

I was the preflop raiser, I thought a raise on the flop might knock out the button and a free card on the turn. I'm still trying to figure out when to be aggressive.
