Default JJ

Opponent is 35/16/1.8 over 89 hands. I don't see him having an overpair on the flop and his minraise looks like an attempt to steal the pot. My raise is too small though.
On the turn, I should just check cause I'm not really getting calls from hands that I beat? The board is very drawy though, I don't know

Don't make it $42. What does that accomplish? Flush draws and even straight draws are going to call for that price because you are inviting them to do so.

Get to the turn in position and likely call a bet if he fires.

As played I'm not sure about the turn. I'd probably check and call most rivers. I think practicing pot control for those times he's got a set is more important here than betting out a flush draw (which given stats and his play isn't folding anyway no matter how large you make it).

River is an okay check, though a bet would probably be appropriate and I'm not sure exactly how thin it is.

Flop isn't something I do all the time, but it's not awful with a read.

Turn is good, as is the river.

You need to 3-bet the flop to an amount that will allow you to push the turn. So, 3-bet to $60 or more.

I would think you'd want to make flop raise to 75$ or so, and if you do that are you ever folding to a shove?
