Looks good to me. You can't fold the flop or turn and raising doesn't make much sense on these streets.

River is good. Button is more likely to have TT, JJ, QQ, AK then KK or AA. He might check through TT-QQ. It's nice to try and trap CO for one more bet if he's not on a flush draw.

Id C/R the flop to isolate, and chase the other 2, who almost certainly have overs, from calling.

I want to check-raise the button somewhere here to protect my overcards: might have the best hand at the moment, don't want some muppet with A9 hitting a 9 on the turn etc. Seems a bit LAG-ish but since we're certainly not folding, why not try to eliminate some opponents?

I think a flop check-raise might be okay. The guys facing two cold still have odds to draw to overcards but might fold anyway.

Guy.

I really don't think CRing the flop is going to eliminate anybody. Plus, I think you will get 3-bet the majority of time, which will encourage people to go to the river with such a bloated pot.

A turn CR looks risky as well. The button capped preflop and with this board you are too likely to get 3-bet by an overpair. Who cares if A9 gets a free look when the Button is very likely to have TT+?
