4-way river action

BB is a TAG with stats of 22/17/2.7 over 285 hands. We haven't tangled yet since he just sat down about an orbit ago.

UTG is a loose and passive player - 56/5/1.75 over 39 hands. Nothing unusual about his play, just typical for his stats.

CO is seat 6 54/0/0.85 over 130 hands, about 100 of them datamined. He's keen to pay off with any part of the board, and is of moderate aggression - he's check/raised me on the turn a few times for value.

My main question about this hand is on the river, but I think all post flop streets are debatable.

The only thing im sure of is that you need to bet that river.

If you think your good after the 2 cold calls on the flop why check the turn? I'm ambivalent about the flop 3bet, TAG can raise with a good chunk of hands that you have beat but were pretty vulnerable with no chance to force incorrect calls at this point and no real fold equity. As you played it I just dont like giving a free card to all those draws out there.

Since you are 3-betting the flop, why aren't you betting a brick of a turn an driver? Bet it down if you think you are best.
