Big WSOP tourney on stars

Qualified for this on about 10th time of asking, was in for $400 in a $370 comp... great. Started badly and lost half my chips with bad play, doubled back up to par then got a multitude of interesting hands:

Think I got maximum value there, if I push the river I think the 4 calls but the overpair has to fold. He may have called though in this tourney... No read on players at this point.

Initial raiser is TAG and will fold everything cept KK+. Limper is loose semi-aggressive and is playing every pot. I read the shorty as pretty weak so I doubled his raise which represents a pretty big hand for me and should push the other two off. This is a token bad beat story.

Passing the river here? Bet less on the flop? This is same loose semi-aggressive player as hand above.

Possibly push pre flop, possibly push the flop, was pretty certain someone was betting that flop and was pretty certain my chips were going so wanted to get as many people in there as possible.

Other than the AQ I think it was all pretty normal.
