Take them for what they are a very good, but very vulnerable hand. I like JJ I will ussually raise or call a raise with JJ... depends on the game but a fold to a reaise is acceptable especially if you like being ahead when you see a flop.. I don`t set mine with JJ because a flop with a J will hit alot of hands with str8 draws so if you make your set you will get stacked alot of the time by a str8. Great hand late in tourney when blind stealing is a priority..Worse thing about a pair is if your beat you rarely have more then two outs.. JJ is a hand I will push preflop probably more then any other just because there are not many flops that you are actually comfortable with when you have pocket jacks.
