5NLz bluffing river with A high after checked turn

Hero is CO with AQo with 7.20 stack.
Villain is on the BTN with 8.20 stack
Folds to hero who opens to 0.15
villain 3bets to 0.52, folds back to hero who calls

Pot: 1.11
Flop: 5c 7h 9s

Hero checks
Villain bets 0.55
Hero calls

Pot: 2.21
Turn: Jc
Hero checks
Villain checks
Now the reason I thought about bluffing the river is because villain isn't slowing down with sets here, AJ is probably betting this turn a second time, and all overs QQ,KK,AA, and JJ are betting this as well. I think the only hand that would slow down that V would be 1010, and 88 which I don't think is 3b in the first place.

Pot: 2.21
River: 9h

Hero bets 1.50, I normally size to about 2/3, but since we were deeper I went a little over what my standard sizing is. The reason for making this is after I bluffed, I really didn't know what hand I was representing. I just bluffed because I thought villain was folding to most rivers. I think I sometimes show up with 10Qs, A9s, 77, 99, JJ, but never QQ+. Thoughts on this line?

yeah I don't mind the explo bluff otr,we are close to the bottom of our range, you also have little SDV vs some Khghs and other stuff so checking is fine too, just be careful to not overbluff.

Villain: The check on turn, in position, on a fairly low board, definately indicates two over cards, like AK or AQ. Thats also within 3-bet range.

Hero: since im playing 5NL zoom, ive been thinking about what i would think, facing a river bet like that. I would probably fold, putting you on KK, QQ, 77 or JJ. Quad 9's are very rare, and you have to be pretty loose to call a 3-bet pot with 9x out of position. It's rare for me to see AJ being played in that spot too. But thats zoom...
