Questions:

Preflop - I think coordinated high-only hands are playable from mid positions especially if opponents are sloppy postflop. But play hands whose idea flop contain no low.

Flop - I might try for the pot here, but there are a lot of draws that would call. Still, might be worth one shot.

Turn - No one likes the turn, so I'll try for the pot with my 3rd nut flush. Ditching my hand at first sign of resistance.

River - Not putting any more money. Hoping for half the pot at best.

Check/fold each street.

Good luck.

Betting the turn is better than checking. If I check the turn with the intention of check/folding the river, I'm winning at best half the pot.

If I bet the turn, there is some chance I win the whole pot, a good chance I split the pot, and some chance that I win nothing. I consider the last possibility pretty unlikely, although I guess someone with a Q-high flush might check/call the turn.

P/F - I play this type of hand in position as well if the pot is unraised in front.

Flop, turn and river I'm checking behind. You're hoping to take half the pot, and you only have the third nuts.

Standard check-fold from flop onwards.

PF looks fine
Check Flop is obvious
No one comes out with a "kicking themselves" bet on the turn so it is worth a go in your position, but it is pretty lose!

What do you do if the BB comes out betting on the river if the board has paired or if a missing wheel card comes? That's the only issue I see.
