NL25 yet another JJ overpair in trouble

[WantToLearn]

Hi 2+2, some more advice needed, thank you very much in advance!

<u>Question:</u>
1. River fold ok?
2. Had I bet the flop, would it then be ok to commit if there is any reraise, given that there is three of them in the hand?

<u>Read:</u> he´s an unknown. I just sat down. Table is very loose - high flop seen rate.

c/r flop is horrible.

Why exactly is this so bad?

By checking the flop, you possibly give a chance for a free card. There are a ton of cards you don't want to see on the turn (spade, overcard) - make them pay to see. Also, check-raising will usually only get worse hands to fold and better hands to call/raise. Leading out is optimal here - it will thin the field as much as a c/r would without commiting a big chunk of your stack.
