I'd fold here. He can't really be bluffing here as his stack isn't big enough to get good fold equity. So it looks like he has JT, 9T, or something like that.

First, man do you ever post reads?

Second, how do you fit coldcalling crappy hands into your ultranitty preflop stats?

Third, as played past the preflop call, probably bet a little more on the turn (like 44-48), and be forced to call a river push getting like 6:1. On your river, this is very tough, but its probably a fold. I don't see what he could have that you beat, other than a horribly played QJ or KJ. He's extremely capable of having Tx, 88, or J9. Its close.

You beat QJ or a bluff. It's not a busted flush draw, so unless it's a missed gutshot draw, I doubt this is air. So, I'd fold the river.

I also check behind on turn if you don't want to commit yourself to pot. Then you can call smallish bet on river. If you're going to bet turn though, make it 50-55. Then you can't fold to BB river push.

Unless you have a read on UTG+1 being a loose PF raiser, I don't like the PF call without others tagging along.

What are you trying to accomplish with your turn bet?

As played, fold the river. You beat QJ and nothing else.

pfc is not good IMO without a read but as played you will beat QJ/JJ also sometimes AK/AJ, so I call
