CO is 63/4/1.3. It's obvious he doesn't know what he is doing. I saw him donking in a big mway pot with A5 on a K78 flop (no flush draw or anything), then he check-called down when he got a 5 on the turn.
The other player is a passive fish.

On the turn, I think CO's hand range is:
-2 pair, that's likely better than mine
-straight
-set
-A3/A5
-some random bluff (less likely, because fish still in the pot)
-Ace with OK kicker (waiting for a safe turn to raise), but that's rather a TAG move so it's unlikely I think

That being said, is a calldown OK?
The river is kind of overcalling situation (flush possible), although I know SB is a fish and will call with a single king here.
Against what kind of opponent can we fold turn, maybe river?

Not sure what you're saying about CO here. You said he was ridiculous in a hand with what he showed down, but when you say his range it's pretty tight.

I raise the turn. If he 3-bets I call down. If he calls, I bet the river because he's certainly not playing like he is on a flush draw.

1.3 isn't as passive as it seems if he's calling down all the time. I'm really temped to 3-bet. I don't like a fold at all. I see this move with just some random pair a lot.
