Default Basics: blind battle

You have AJs in the BB. It's folded to the SB who raises. You threebet and he calls. You don't know much about him.

Flop is QJ5 and he check-raises you. What's your action?

If you call the turn is a Q and he bets. You...?

If you call, the river is an A and he checks. You...?

Guy.

I'll raise this turn against a LAG or a blind LAG (some tags go crazy in the blinds) and call down to 3 bet... Against a TAG I'd take jba's line. Bet river.

I call down and probably just check behind on the river because I don't want to make any play here that leads to a fold. What are the suits on the board? What would he call with on this river that you beat?

I assume an unknown falls into the TAG category in blind wars

This looks like:

"If he has you beat then good for him."

That's a non argument and I don't see any ranges in this thread.
