PokerStars - $0.50 NL FAST (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players

Hero (BB): 100 BB
UTG: 16.44 BB (VPIP: 100.00, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 2)
CO: 99.78 BB (VPIP: 16.67, PFR: 8.33, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 13)

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, Hero posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has 3♦ 5♦

UTG raises to 2 BB, fold, CO calls 2 BB, fold, fold, Hero calls 1 BB

5.5:1 odds, exactly what we need for any suited hand, is it ok to come in with almost the lowest possible?

Flop: (6.5 BB, 3 players) K♦ 7♠ T♦
Hero checks, UTG checks, CO bets 3 BB, Hero calls 3 BB, fold

Turn: (12.5 BB, 2 players) A♦
Hero checks, CO bets 6 BB, Hero raises to 24 BB, CO raises to 94.78 BB and is all-in, Hero ?

I make this raise big because CO's presumably fish and I didn't want to lose value. However he goes over the top, certainly some flushes higher are possible. QJ is also there, smth like TT, 77, AT probably.

Hey,

I would donk the flop. Just not a huge fan of c/call, c/fold every time you miss the turn... I don't expect to get raised very often on this board. As played flop, you only have a bluff catcher, so just c/call turn.

From FL we know that we may enter the pot with any suited hand if odds are 5.5:1. Ofc we can lose a lot and win less, is there some rule of a thumb to follow when considering flatting? Now I see that CO is not necessarily fish, his stack is not full but it may just be a little trick, and I overplayed the hand a lot.

Yea, I don't think you're getting this hand in as a favorite on this turn card almost ever and that's why I prefer just calling the turn bet. Sure, I understand why it's appealing to raise the turn vs that szpize but without more info on villain, I think calling is better.
