(.50) unsure of line with JJ in an 18-man... (.50) unsure of line with JJ in an 18-man...

Hey all,
I used to play 9 man sng's but have recently switched to 18-mans. I also used to limp 22-JJ pf in the early levels and just set mine but have recently switched to raising JJ pf. This puts me in some tough spots both pre and postflop. What is hero's line here:

Poker Stars, $6 + $0.50 NL Hold'em Tournament, 10/20 Blinds, 9 Players
LeggoPoker.com - Hand History Converter

UTG+1: 1,500
Hero (UTG+2): 1,490
MP1: 1,520
MP2: 1,510
CO: 1,220
BTN: 1,830
SB: 1,630
BB: 1,360
UTG: 1,440

Pre-Flop: (30) J J dealt to Hero (UTG+2)
UTG calls 20, UTG+1 folds, Hero raises to 100, 6 folds, UTG raises to 1,440 and is All-In, Hero calls 1,340


What do we do if

a) villain rr pf to t400?
b) villain calls and flop comes A 8 5 rainbow?

I'm getting it in as an overpair nearly always but on a flop that contains overcards I'm really confused. It seems likely that we're WA/WB so betting allows villain to play perfectly...maybe c/c flop is the best line?

Thanks for your input,
Mariogs
