    I'd call the 4xbb raise and see what flops. If he shows weakness, you might be able to take the pot, since he will probably put you on big cards or a set for calling the raise, unless you normally call raises with crap that is

    himself fucker.
    Easy. Play for a set.

    If the flop comes all unders, try and take it as cheaply as you can. But if anyone wants to fight over it harder than you, just drop out.

    I know JJ is difficult to play - I often get it wrong myself - but this is not a difficult situation. Call.

    (so, the flop is going to be Axx and the raiser puts in a continuation bet, I reckon)

    From the blinds, call and hope for a set or overpair. Be careful of the initial raiser, though. He could be holding a bigger overpair.
