I would just call the river. I think you're beat too often.

Agreed, the turn and river both completed 2 different draws, you're likely to be either marginally ahead or extremely behind on the river

How are you marginally ahead or completely behind on the river?

Is this talking about "the hands ahead of you are always going to want to put their chips in and the hands behind you wont"?

Precisely.

Mp1 went from a turn caller with a spade -> 1st river better with a possible straight, you can't reraise....

I'm going to disagree here and say that raising was correct. Under normal circumstances, a call is definitely warrented. Here, however, MP1 is close to all-in. I've noticed that when people are close to all-in they try hard to go all-in even with weak hands or hands that are likely beat. They know that a 2BB stack is worthless so they want to get it all in now even if it is a -EV play and they know it; they want to gamble the rest of their stack. I think he could be betting the river with A9, 97, 9T, a missed flush draw, or something like that. Sure, he could have a real hand, but I think his donk-betting range is VERY wide. On top of that, I think you have the SB beat, so I wouldn't worry about that.

My Reads on MP1: complete donk, this guy was horrible could be any 2 cards for all I know...

CO seems semi thinking to me probably has QQ-AA, given he caps flop and calls the turn that makes no since to be anything but those 3 hands

And SB just a donk along for the ride no threat to me expect him donating to my quickly growing pot here...
