Perfect. I'm not giving the opponents you described credit for trip Js or Ks. If they have it, good for them.

Looks good to me, only thing your beat by is JJ or KK, held by button since he raised preflop. Id say the turn explosion puts him on AJ, maybe "slowplaying" rockets? I'm not too sure, I'm still a newb.

You should raise the flop. You have the best hand at this point, but it's not the almight nuts, so raise raise raise.

Given the flop play it's tough to put someone on KK or JJ. I think you played it perfectly.

As a HUGE fan of fastplay, I raise this flop. After that, looks great.

I like the flop call because AK or any big pocket pairs might still have hopes to be ahead and will be more likely to show turn aggression than if you raise into them.

the slowplay is fine, no need to kick anyone out of the pot, id be very surprized to see JJ or KK show up here

Very nicely played. Some may argue for raising the flop, but I like the smooth call and reraise on the turn myself.

Given the way it was played, I'll put your opponents on these hands:

button AK or (god forbid) KK
UTG 22 or 55
MP2 KJ

Results please
