Default NL50: QQ in blind battle with TAG

Villain is not known to me: we played like three orbits and his stats/play looked TAG, he was multitabling.
I haven't done anything special up to that point, some stealing but no too much. No confrontation with him yet.

Poker Stars
No Limit Hold'em Cash Game
$0.25/$0.50 Blinds
6 Players - (LegoPoker Hand History Converter)

Hero (SB): $49.50
BB: $50.00
UTG: $57.10
MP: $53.65
CO: $59.85
BTN: $144.35

Preflop: Hero is dealt Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (6 Players)
4 folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $2.00</font>, <font color="red">BB raises to $6.00</font>, Hero calls $4.00

Flop: ($12) 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)
Hero checks, <font color="red">BB bets $7.50</font>, Hero calls $7.50

Turn: ($27) 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)
Hero checks, <font color="red">BB bets $16.00</font>, Hero ...

He should know that I could raise quite light pre - is that a reason for a 4bet pre?
What about flop / turn? Will he double barrel AK?

I typically 4bet/call preflop in these situations.

As played I think I just call down

This is a blind battle, so 4betting preflop is all that much more appealing. If we were CO and he was BTN for example, I might lean towards calling &amp; CRAIing any non A or K flop here, but overall, in BvB, I shove.

This is a good flop for us, I think CRing here is a good option, since you will probably get calls from TT, JJ, we are going broke on this board against AA or KK anyways, and he might think you are still on a steal &amp; shove with some crap he 3bet your "steal" perflop, T9 or AK or something.

I think calling isn't too bad either, and kind of disguises your hand. I think I CRAI this turn though. He has like $20 left behind, and there's no way he's getting away from it. I don't see us getting away from our hand either, no matter what comes on the river, so yeah, CRAI turn and open-shove river both viable options for getting money in.
