Haven't been at the table long, not much for reads other than UTG seems laggy and CO seems passive.

u really think CO plays a 9 like this, and if he does he caps it if you 3-bet (he's passive and your 3-bet could look like KK to him).

Doing your thing I like the river bet becuase u can fold if he raises as he won't raise a 9 if he is passive given of the flush; but if you stop n'go all rivers he doesn't call with a missed spade draw (IMO the likliest worse hand- he called 2 cold on the flop and 1.6ish cold on the turn- its unliekly a 5, maybe a K and a 9 beats you) and I can't see checking non-spade rivers here trying to induce a bluff form a passive opponent, so all told I think you come out better 3-betting the turn.

I was also considering that if CO had a king, he might fold it to my turn 3-bet, but he's definitely calling the river if I just call the turn.

I dont think theres any way he folds a K here on the turn after already calling two cold.

I know what you're thinking here but I dont think this is the spot for it. I like a 3 bet.

I don't think this guy folds a K after the preflop call, flop coldcall and call 1.6 cold on the turn in a jig-nourmour pot, plus he pays off the river. so that like to lost BBs, maybe 1.5 if he can find a fold somewhere. Plus you lose a bet v. a spade draw by not 3-betting the turn.
