Ok my opponent open limps, makes weird raises, 3bet all in preflop for 50bb, donkbet with top pair weak kicker for pot in 3way action. What is your plan postflop? I bet here on flop. Turn I decide check. On river I get aces up but flush draw complete and Kx has straight here.

I think it's fine like this. Personally I would bet 1/3th on the river for thin value and fold to a raise. Because what are you going to do if you check river and he bets like $0,40? You're in a difficult spot. He has bluffs, he can overplay two pairs etc..

Good question but I don't see mamy worse hands to call small bet on river, QJ most times he raise on flop, QT or JT he bet on turn I except having some information about him.
Board is problematic vs player who sometimes Play passive and aggresive too.

River is a spot you could go for thin value, but on a wet board like this it will be tough to get action of worse.
Any flush and king beats you.

You are up against typical whale. You could make second barrel but it's borderline. It depends.

As played you could make a very thin value bet OTR. Up to 1/3. You could find a call of weaker 2 pairs witch most likely will check behind
