Turn decision on scary board

[kom]

I've been flipping back and forth on this one for a few days. I have no idea why I didn't full pot which might have made things a bit easier.

On the turn the pot is $30.75 and effective stacks are 39.

Should I bet the turn and if so how much?

CO is a 54/4/0.37 extremely loose passive calling station, chases weak draws, the usual stuff.

BB is 20/12/1.39. Has seemed reasonable and hasn't been out of line over the 90ish hands at the table.

I would bet here approximately never. While it would be nice to price out the flush draw, any bet basically commits you to the pot given stack sizes, and I don't think I would want to play for my stack vs. 2 opponents with TPGK on this board.

check behind and hope to check behind on river. I'm basically ready to trash this hand once you get two callers on the flop.

BB c/c worries me. I am checking behind here. They are both pretty passive, I dont expect them to bet this board without something good on the river either.

I don't like betting because we can't stand a raise but we have good showdown value. I probably won't call a bet on a river that doesn't give us a straight (that isn't a heart obv).

is this a reasonable call of an UTG raise? is it the presence of the co call that makes it so? or having the button?

CO's call makes our call not as bad and since we have the button we'll get to see how everyone acts before we do.. it's not a bad call in position.

basically looking to flop a big hand or big draw, but not standing up to alot of aggression if we flop top pair. something like that?
