I am new to TPE. I have struggled with this recently.
JJ utg with 25BB
I have been raising to 2.5-2.8 BB. Have been called on button and in tough spot. If board is ten high it easy to play. If an over card flops, I feel like any bet puts to much stress on stack. If I push they play perfectly. Please Help!

This is too complex of a question to give you a clear answer, but try to recognize that the reason you’re having trouble with JJ isn’t because of any property possessed by JJ, it’s because you lack the capacity for accurately ranging your opponents and recognizing board textures. Work on these things and JJ will get easier to play.
Oh, and also, size your raises smaller when you only have 25bb. You need to be aiming for maximum postflop maneuverability, which means you should be sizing to around 2.25bb at most when in early position with this stack size. Bigger sizings reduce the stack-to-pot ratio on the flop, which makes life difficult on the occasions you flop an ambiguous hand, which is most of the time.
