Default Big pot, top two against idiots - butchered?

UTG is a 60/13/0.6 guy and plays mostly like his stats indicate. He is on the passive side and this was the main reason for my river decision. Sb is a complete idiot 73/14/0.84 It looks like he sucked out big time but I wouldn't be surprised to see Q5 or A5. I think its about 40%-50% that I have him beaten on the river.

I think I really[censored] up on the turn. Anyone else 3-bets this?

Im not folding this. Good thing here is that you know you can get in for 2 and UTG wont 3 bet even AA here imo.

Don't fold here. You will win these 'wtf?' spots enough to end up in the green.

I don't understand the turn at all, what the hell does a passive player have to cap preflop, call a flop raise and then riase the turn? AA QQ and AQ are possiblities. What else is? AK- he can't have AK+flush draw so he has to be doing something totally out of character.
On the river if you estimate that you are ahead of the SB 50% of the time then you have to be ahead of UTG 16% of the time. I don't like the turn 3 bet, i don't like a river call either.

I wouldn't 3-bomb the turn, and I would never fold this river versus captain donkey and his sidekick. the idiot who shows up on the river has some retarded worse 2P hand plenty often to make a call correct.

Note that both of these players` stats are not passive.
