Very good point about the the lack of aggression. I think you're chance to steal the pot was on the flop with a check-raise and then with another bet on the turn. Of course I'm not really sure about the particular table dynamics and not completely sure what a check-call on this flop from you usually is, but if I'm the button in this hand, I know you're very capable of calling on the flop with a wide range, and I know you're very capable of taking the lead on the river with a wide range. Given how the hand played out, I'm also guessing that button knows this and decided that his hand was strong
