reads on button? does button bet/3bet with AKo? Or only with overpairs? What about the flush draw? Would button bet a busted flush?

I call down here if button is laggy and bets AJ/AK this way, but when the Q hits, it shortens what you beat that little bit further.

I think after the 3bet, c/f the turn is not horrendous.

You need a read. Either c/f the turn or call down.

Well, I didn't have a specific read, but I tend to not give a lot of credit to the flop raise. It's usually overcards.

I think I fold to an A or K on the turn... is calling the Q ridiculous if I am folding to those cards?
