The flop bet seems OK. I'd have made it $5 even, but there's not much difference.

Given the action on the flop, and his willingness to put money in on the turn, I don't see how we can be ahead on the turn. I'd fold.

JJ is not a big enough hand, especially with an Ace on the board, to play for a big pot. Without a specific read on the guy, I'd get out now, and get out cheap.

Your flop raise was good.. I think he had on flop a made hand.. Maybe AT, KT or three of a kind.. He bets on turn a value bet.. maybe to represent the Ace.. You can make here a raise what he gots

No you can't. Raising is terrible here.

If you're ready to invest the cost of raising in this hand, it's way better to call turn and river bets than to raise turn. You lose the same when villain has an A, you win more when villain does not.

No saying that calling turn and river bets is a good idea. Just better than raising.
