Default Tricky donk check-raises me

Villain is very loose and passive. He likes to get tricky though. He check-raised me on the river when I had top pair with his top pair and no kicker. He also check-raised the turn when I had a big pocket pair. I also won that hand.

Paradise 1/2 (5max)
I am utg with KJo and raise. Folded to the villain who calls in the BB. Flop is Axxr
He checks, I bet, he calls
Turn is a J.
He check-raises me

What's the plan?

I'd probably check the turn to induce a bluff and prevent getting check/raised. What did he have when he check/raised on the turn before when you had the overpair? If it was top pair I'd just fold here once you do bet.

One more hand against this donk.
I raise AK UTG
Everyone folds to him. He calls.

Flop KTT 2 diamonds

I bet, he calls

Turn is an 8 of diamonds.
He donks, I raise, he 3 bets. Plan?

I can't see his cards at paradise but I'd guess a flush draw.
