Villain is 15/7. He has a fold to 3bet of 83% over a very large sample

I was contemplating on 2/3rdsing the turn. Thoughts?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (8 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

saw flop

BB ($45.30)
UTG ($23.75)
UTG+1 ($20.70)
MP1 ($35.45)
MP2 ($60.85)
CO ($54.50)
Hero (Button) ($50)
SB ($49.20)

Preflop: Hero is Button with 7, 5
4 folds, CO bets $2, Hero raises to $6, 2 folds, CO calls $4

Flop: ($12.75) 6, 7, J (2 players)
CO checks, Hero bets $7.50, CO calls $7.50

Turn: ($27.75) K (2 players)
CO checks, Hero checks

River: ($27.75) 3 (2 players)
CO checks, Hero checks

Total pot: $27.75 | Rake: $1.35

How often has he seen you 3bet.

It may not be a good time to pull this based on game flow, depsite the fact you can 3bet ATC.

I don't think I'm cbetting here once he calls, just check it down/hope he sees what you have then tighten your 3bet range up and get paid when you are dealt the nuts.

I'd bet the flop harder. That bet might not fold out any of his preflop range. Turn would then be a great card to barrel.

Turn card is one of the best 3 cards in the deck to double barrel.

I would continue on the turn
it would really suck if he had 88-TT on the flop and you didn't let him fold that

So the turn is a good card to barrel, what do you guys think about cbetting the flop?

Preflop I'd fold because despite his fold to 3b we need a hand with better hand strength esp. considering we're unsure what we're even doing postflop.

Flop: he folds to 3bets 83% of the time so when he calls he's likely going to have a good pair and maybe AK. He's also passive so we can get to sd by checking down against AK.

Turn: Bomb it again because TT/QQ/Jx are likely folding.
