I'd raise JJ from the CO pre-flop, with only limpers, because you will have position on the flop.

is that a scary flop? only thing scary to me is the river, why not raise flop or turn

limping is not horrendous here, early on in the sng, but raising from CO is not bad either.

i would have made a 1/2 to pot sized bet on the flop here, and if you are called, slow down a bit. some sort of continuation bet on the turn, and check the river down. use your position to the max.

I don't mind limping here, but in the CO with 1 limper in front of me I might bring it up to around 50 - 60 to eliminate the blinds.

You have a pretty good flop, you need to put in a good raise (or bet if checked to you) to force all the draws to fold.

The rest of the hand from that point would probably have played itself.
