Second hand of tourney

After calling PF I checked the guys sharkscope stats, -10% roi at an average buyin of a little less than 200.

I thought I should be willing to felt JJ against a losing player here, but calling the flop lets him make a mistake on the turn. Comments?

i would bet out flop and fold to a raise. i feel that is the cheapest way to see where you stand and try to win the pot at the same time.

calling the flop is eh... hes already showed quite a bit of agression, he has position, and there are overcards that can come. i think i just fold flop... definetley fold turn, you are beat a very high % of the time. the only hands you are beating is AK or TT.
