Default I don\'t know where I\'m at with JJ

My table image might be a factor here. In my very first hand at the table I posted and picked up AKs, and 3bet an LP raiser. 2 hands later I had JJ and won a 25BB pot when I rivered quads against a flopped straight and a flopped set of tens. Not long after this I get TT twice in a row and jammed their no-overcard flops. The very next hand is this one:

Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (10 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is CO with J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
UTG calls, UTG+1 folds, UTG+2 folds, MP1 folds, MP2 calls, <font color="CC3333">MP3 raises</font>, <font color="CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, Button folds, SB folds, BB folds, UTG folds, MP2 calls, <font color="CC3333">MP3 caps</font>, Hero calls, MP2 calls.

Flop: (14.50 SB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(3 players) </font>
MP2 checks, <font color="CC3333">MP3 bets</font>, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises</font>, MP2 folds, <font color="CC3333">MP3 3-bets</font>, Hero calls.

Turn: (10.25 BB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(2 players) </font>
<font color="CC3333">MP3 bets</font>, Hero calls.

On the flop I thought he may have been pushing a big suited ace ([img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]s) But at this point it only makes sense for him to have an overpair. The only hand I can beat is 99.

River: (12.25 BB) T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(2 players) </font>
<font color="CC3333">MP3 bets</font>, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 14.25 BB

I had not yet gotten involved with the villain here so I don't think he's targeting me because of my good fortunte. I often find myself in this siutation with JJ and no overcards. Did I slow down to soon here or possibly overplay? Any other comments would be cool.

I would have played it the same. Hes representing something bigger than Jacks. Sometimes you'll see something wild here, often enough to call down. But I wouldnt keep raising.

you played it fine. when your big pair runs into a bigger one, there's not much you can do

I think you put in about the right amount of action. Your opponent keeps telling you he likes his hand, so unless you know he is a maniac, you should probably have slowed down when you did.

Good luck,
play well,
