SB is only player on table I know and he is a pretty aggressive player, probably 20/12 and very aggressive on later streets, if hes playing he usually has control of the hand.

Been on the table less then 2 orbits. Half the hands have been blind only wins. Majority of the rest are 4-6BB pots.

I am kinda curious as to the preflop and flop calls. I dont really like playing JTo to a raise becuase of flops like this one. On the flop I freeze up. Call/Raise/Fold?? Pots pretty big and seems like a raise would play best here, but I knowing SB will bet out turn again, I would like to wait until there to raise on a safe card (but then I asked myself how 'safe' cards are there). When UTG+1 reraised I noticed he had 3 BB left only and figured he was donking off his stack.

Turn and river speak for themselves.
