Default $40 live game: sqeeze here?

Just ITM 5 players left of a local 33 person game. CO has opened up a bit after the bubble but generally pretty passive. His pf raise sizes were big tips to how strong he was (small-weak, big-strong). Roughly I'd say he's raising ~25-30% and calling about top 5-10%. Button is very loose passive calling a lot of raises but folding most hands to bigger 3-bets/pushes etc. He had shown down hands like A4s K2s after calling std raises preflop. I put him on a very wide intial calling range but fairly small 3-bet calling range. I had been fairly active but only really showing down solid hands (not that I think they are that aware).

I realize this doesn't seem deep enough and that they should be calling with a lot of hands here, but these players had no solid concept of pot odds etc. They were more concerned with if they felt they were behind than if calling is +EV.

Blinds 2k/4k no antes

UTG - 40k
CO - 45k
Button - 55k
SB - 40k
BB(hero) - 50k

Hero is in the BB w/ KJo.

UTG folds, CO raises to 9k, Button calls 9k, SB folds, Hero raises all-in to 50k.

I like this. Especially given player descriptions.

Looks good given passive CO and button. Only thing that would seal the deal is what your table image was....LAG or TAG?

Just based on the title, without reading the post, yes.
