UB 10/20 6 handed

MP is a major donk, CO is a lesser donk, but still on the charts (BB is decent). Bet or check-call river? What conditions on CO's play affect your answer?

Preflop: Hero is SB with T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
1 fold, MP calls, CO calls, 1 fold, Hero raises, 1 fold, MP calls, CO calls.

Flop: (7 SB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (3 players)
Hero bets, MP calls, CO raises, Hero 3-bets, MP folds, CO calls.

Turn: (7 BB) K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)
Hero bets, CO calls.

River: (9 BB) A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)

I like a check-call here to induce a bluff from someone who has nothing.

Yeah plus I can't imagine he calls a river bet with a worse hand.

You don't think there are any J9s or 77s out there that will check behind but call a bet?

I'm not sure CO has nothing considering he raised the flop. Have you been running over the table with aggression so far? How's your table image? If you have a lag image it might be better to check-call here, since villian will probably value bet a worst hand. If he's really passive though you're better off just betting and in this case you don't really fear a raise either. With the Ace coming though I don't see villian betting more hands than he calls with. I'd probably bet out.

CO being a donk is the only condition you need to bet it.
