JTo vs. a steal

[rjc199]

I'm not that adept at defending my blind because I usually avoid tight tables because they are unprofitable. I had to play at this table though because I knew it was going to loosen up soon and I didn't want to give up my seat.

The enemy in this hand is a lag. Is JT good enough of a hand to defend a blind with? Should I 3-bet this preflop? Should I bet/check-raise the flop since I have a draw and two cards above the two lowest on board?
