25NL 6m- JJ faces reraise pf
 

No reads on villain, pretty standard reraise preflop.

Fold to his reraise preflop? If I call I'm pretty much playing for set value but can guarantee I'll stack him if I hit.
On the flop this is an easy fold, the only thing I'm beating is a horrendously played AK.

I would call preflop by default, but maybe it's not as good as it seems... Then again, you're in position.

Fold preflop.

"Stack value" isn't quite what it seems here. You're calling $4.50 (18 BB) to win (effectively) $25.35 total. Assuming you want a set to continue post-flop (most likely a shove situation anyway), you're an 8-1 dog against. At best, you're stacking 1/9 times, with the few exceptions of a AJ2 or KJ8 flop, where you may be concerned about AA and KK, the most likely holdings of your three-betting opponent. Playing deeper stacked, it may warrant a call, but you're committing a lot of only a 100BB stack here.

Short of flopping a set, is that really that important? An opponent's c-bet is effectively a shove anyway.

I fold to the 4-bet pre.

You have no set value here

As played fold..

If villain has AK I do not see his play as horrendous..Villain can safely assume you do not have AA-QQ(even tho if I had AA and sometime KK I would smooth call his RR)..Villain has bearly more then a PSB bet left so any C-bet commits him for his stack..Villains options are simple in the hand open shove or C/F if you bet or CRAI..
