i still give JJ the same exact raise i would give AA or KK or AK/AQ 4x the BB

if your raising higher with JJ your only going to be called by QQ KK AA and/or someone comes over the top of you.

if you change up your raises inline with strength of your hand, someone is going to make this play at you everytime you raise that amount because he knows you have a middle pair.


and the second hand i woulda kicked up the preflop raise quite a bit.
