Always unsure about these types of spots. Only played 4 hands with the villian so no reads there. But what do i do with a UTG raise and i have JJ. I feel like i should be 3betting here because smaller pocket pairs, A9+ maybe KQs are all in his range. Should i just flat here and take a flop? but then board comes like it does and what do i do or with over cards and i have to fold to a c-bet. Do i have enough in my stack to raise fold pre? I'm leaning towards the last option but i'm not sure.

Really? are you not running into a bigger hand just too much of the time, i mean his line is pretty strong, raise UTG then shove on a big blind 3bet. How much of the time are we against a weaker hand?
I'd wouldn't be happy getting it in here either… UTG smells like a monster!
I would time bank here….then factor in a few things even though we don't have much history with villian.
I would look at his country of origin. I would look at how quickly he four bet jammed. Then I would would pokerdb him and find out his stats.
Then I would make an educated guess as to what this player might be capable of, then act accordingly.
Its not always as black and white as, I had JJ, he four bet from UTG, so I must be beat, or I must call.
Poker is a game of information. Against an unknown in this spot, it is prob a fold imo, as you are at best racing against AK most of the time.
If this guy is from Finland, is a winning player, and 4 bet quickly, it's a snap call.
Side Note: you're 3 bet is fairly small, which is screaming a big hand, and he still 4 bets.
IMO, for him to 4 bet jam in this spot, after you've shown extreme strength, you are VERY rarely ahead here with JJ.
