Default Preflop play in button facing a 3-bet

Party 5/10 (5-handed)

UTG (63/12/1.5 after 268 hands) raise.
UTG+1 (17/13/2.59 after 219 hands) 3-bet

SB is LP-P (something along the lines of 40/5/0.75)
BB is 50/12/1.29 after 127 hands

You are on the button, what is your play with...
1. JJ?
2. TT?
3. 99?
4. 88?
5. AQo?

Really? I'd re-raise TT-JJ, and be mighty tempted with 99-88. I'd probably fold AQo, even though I think there's a fair chance it is the best hand against a loose raise and an isolation attempt.

It depends if UTG+1 knows UTG is loose/bad. If he does I'd cap JJ and maybe TT and fold the rest.

You can probably fold all of these given UTG+1's expected range of 3-betting hands preflop, but I would consider capping JJ here.

Edit: Pokerstove and stuff:
UTG raises: {AA-88, AKs-A7s, KQs-KTs, QJs-QTs, AKo-A9o, KQo-KTo, QJo}
UTG+1 3-bets: {AA-88, AKs-ATs, KQs-KJs, AKo-AJo, KQo }

JJ is about ~40% to win, everything else is low 30s at best.

I would probably fold them all here. AK QQ would be an easy cap. JJ might be playable, I think it's pretty marginal here.

If I thought TAG was trying to isolate and be raising a little lighter then he would be to a good player I might drop down to TT.
