In this hand, IMO call pre flop seems to be the best option. I want to see only flop with JJ and have position. Flop isn't good for us, but we also have lucky that appear K on the flop. In this hand are 2 players, so it is possible that somebody has K in range. For me it is fold. You still have 50bb, I want to wait for better chance.

I think your line here is ideal. I call the same pre, check behind flop, and fold turn.

The issues with this hand re the flatting of the 3B pre is are you able to get away post-flop if JJ is an over pair to the board? Most cannot and it is a huge leak.

Hmmm ... seeing the CO numbers and given they are the one doing the 3B, I would argue that the JJ here becomes a set-mine hand only. The opener has a wide range but the 3B% of the CO is pretty polarized in this spot and you are behind vs his range. However, the implied odds are just good enough to make the call. It is close, though. I could present an argument for a fold.

Problem here is I play my hand pretty face up in this spot.

And yes it was villains first 3bet in game as well, so I gave him a very tight range at that moment.

I'd play it the same preflop. Flop is fine. You have to call the turn as he represents absolutely nothing. Not to mention the good odds you are getting. If you called the turn and MP overcalled, then I check back the river. If you call the turn and MP folds, then I fire 1/3rd pot when checked to OTR.

fold pre imo, like if we overcall we go 3way in the best scenario given the price, we turn our hand a bit face up, and we aren't closing the action. people would snap fold 99/1010 here and our equity isnt significantly better.
