Villain in this hand was pretty fishy and active, running around 25/16 or so. He didn't seem very good at all, so I was looking to play pots with him. I've been quiet, but he's unlikely to be noticing table images much.
I think pre is standard, can't see a reason to 3b or a reason to fold. Flop is a little strange from him, but I can't see folding. Usually these kinds of bets are pretty weak. I chose not to bet turn just because I think it overreps my hand a little and gets me in weird river spots, and pot controlling/inducing bluffs seemed best. On river, I just puke and don't know what to do. I think it's possible he has a wide bluffing range here, or he just has Ax and thinks its the nuts, and is going for value now because he 'deceptively' checked on turn. However, I don't see too many overbet bluffs from fishy villains in these spots.

I like your line until the river, I agree with the turn check back, especially due to his flop sizing. On river I would expect villain to have a flush almost always, I'm actually surprised he bet over 2x pot on the river with just a straight. So I would definitely fold river, I just don't expect fish to bluff here very often at all.

I would half pot the turn. Think that gets us into a lot less weird spots than checking, and there's plenty he can check/fold and potentially call worse with. He shouldn't be c/ring too often with these stacks so I'm fine betting 1/2 pot or 3/5 pot. I would definitely fold the river because randoms don't overbet bluff often and you're way down in your range.

Apart from agreeing with what the above posts say, i would say that if you have to think about making these thin calls early in such a soft tournament at these stages then it's almost always a fold.

You just don't have to make these calls early on in the milly.

I don't like the river call too. In every previous comment there is some truth and all of them sums everything. Most of the draws just got there on that river, the bet is huge, the field is soft and its hard to expect random to do such a bluff move.

dont mind 3bet pre although flat is fine, turn is close between bet and check and river is a fold as everything got there apart from total air that would probably either fire all 3 streets or give up after turn
