Your range in him looks pretty good, KK and QQ would be weird, but I could see him c/c them on that turn, even if the flop c/c was odd.
What I'm saying about value here is that often we only get it if he only had KK QQ and polices, or c/r bluffs a miss or 1 pair, realizing that we should need a straight to call him. These weird half pot and overbets will do us no good against his range which is contains lots of stuff, but in particular a large clump of hands that missed, or are now a straight.
I don't like the calling the check raise all the time, and would actually advise against it generally. But half pot and overbets don't work because of the nature of what he does in reaction to those bets which is never call w worse
