Default Re: overpair JJ facing heavy flop action

I was pretty unconvinced of my ability to thin the field to my liking by raising PF here and didn't really want to play a large pot against two opponents from the SB and be unhappy when the overcard came. If I had 40-50 BBs instead of 30 I might take this approach, it sort of goes with my whims at the moment. My plan was to get away cheaply if the action looked crazy and an overcard came, and check anticipating a nice bet from somebody else if JJ came as an overpair. Beating him into pot is a pretty fair description of what I did, but since most of my poker has been against other 2+2'ers or HU for the past few weeks I've turned into something of a lagmonster and consequently am making a lot of pretty borderline calls, so this post is just a bit of a sanity check.
