Default Standard call down with JJ overpair on somewhat scary board?

I'm absolutely brand new to NL Hold'em. After struggling with limit for over 40k hands (and pretty much breaking even), I got tired of constantly getting sucked out by people who had absolutely no odds to draw.

So..my first hand post at $50 NL.



Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (9 handed) converter

UTG+1 ($43.15)
MP1 ($92.98)
Hero ($45.70)
MP3 ($46.60)
CO ($20.91)
Button ($48.50)
SB ($54.43)
BB ($50)
UTG ($48.50)

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $0.25.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls $0.50, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 raises to $1</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $2.5</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, CO calls $2.50, Button calls $2.50, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, UTG+1 folds, MP1 calls $1.50.

Flop: ($11.25) 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
MP1 checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $5</font>, CO calls $5, Button folds, MP1 folds.

Turn: ($21.25) 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">CO bets $5</font>, Hero calls $5.

River: ($31.25) 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, CO calls $8.41 (All-In), Hero calls $8.41.

Final Pot: $48.07

Is this standard?

My biggest problem so far in adjusting is knowing how much to bet and raise. Any suggestions where I can find this out? Or where I can find some kind of chart on what hands people generally play preflop?

Thanks.

Raise to atleast $3.50 preflop. Bet close to pot on flop.

Do you raise 3.50 preflop even if there isnt a raise in front of you?

What is a standard raise with something like AQo preflop? What about if you miss the flop and have position afterwards?
