    Obviously depends on how the villain is playing/if you have player notes.  Without history on the opponent, I flat pre and post flop, when the Q hits the turn and he bets out again, I prob flat call as the 10p/20p level he's not putting 25%+ of his stack in on the turn with anything less than AA, KK, QQ, AK or AQ with that board.  With the Q hitting the river he prob shoves and that limits his range further his range is definately one of the afore mentioned hands - the best you're going to do is split the pot so I prob fold the river at this point IF I don't have history on the player.  If there are more players in the pot, I probably shove on the turn.

    I'm pretty sure if you have an open ended straight flush draw, especially with one end drawing to the royal, you don't want to be doing anything apart from getting 100% of money in on the flop. When turn comes a blank, you're suddenly not liking your hand anywhere near as much, but on flop a str flush draw plays brilliantly against anything, even a set. There's not many hands that aren't drawing dead when your opponent hits quads on the turn.

    Also, flatting the flop is a really, really bad play IMO. You don't have a made hand, therefore slowplaying isn't on the cards.
