Default Re: 3/6nl 6max - playing medium pairs

CO plays 24/17 over large sample size and is a big winner in database, we tangle a lot, and he often shows down air. He is capable of EVERYTHING.

I play 26/19 and he knows my range here is pretty wide.

Is this too weak? Should I just be prepared to felt JJ in spots like this against players like him? Should I have c-bet the flop?

Lately I've been thinking I can show more value by just cold-calling with medium pairs and playing for set value in multi-way pots than trying to isolate big winning lags with them. I'm sure no one in the world can run as bad as me, but still, it seems everytime I either fold and feel weak or felt and lose.
