i really dont like the reraise because of the position you were in, you would have to lead out at any flop in this position not to feign complete weakness. If MP3 was any good he would need a nice hand to call that reraise w/. A call or push before the flop depending on the type of player MP3 is would have been the correct play i think. since you did reraise and he did call i like your lead bet at the flop, and the bet size was decent too because had you pushed youd be called by only hands that beat you, (i dont see JJ calling that bet, but i do see AJ, AQ, AK, KK, AA, QQ, and TT calling) if you were reraised you could get away from your hand and still have enough chips left to play. bad preflop play, decent/good flop play.

Just my opinion
