call down. Don't let him dump a lower pair than yours (or a bluff). This line minimizes the bets you put in against a J and ensures you get to showdown.

I would raise and fold to a re-raise.

Uh, calls. It's not that hard. If you've got a read on what he bets, then it's an easier decision, but against unknowns, you're up against A6 and 75 and often random bluffs frequently enough to see a showdown.

Hero raises with only 1 over on board.

You have position, use it. Call down, and bet if checked to. He'll continue bets with bottom pair / lower PPs/ random bluffs, we save ourselves bets when behind a J and let him bleed off chips with weak holdings. If he gives up betting his weak pair we can bet and he'll call thinking we're trying to steal the pot.

If we were OOP (but then he couldn't donkbet us...whatever) then I'd raise + lead the turn + riv barring dangerous cards.

If you raise, he calls, and he calls the turn, you almost always have a value-bet on the river too.
