Ok, it is a step tourney in which you should play fairly tigh but not passive in my opinion.
I would reraise PF.
As played: bet the flop - missing that push all-in after MP3 bets.
Turn is okay i guess.
I would just check call River.

This hand is way too passive. Which step is this? 1-2 steps are pretty loose and I don't mind getting it all in here on the flop w/ an overpair. I would play the hand entirely differently and not c/c flop and check turn. As played (sb call pre and c flop) I definitely raise flop. On riv as played just call.
