Fold. You're never ahead of his range of hands.

If he happened to turn over AK, you may have been slightly ahead that time, but in the long run you won't be.

Easy fold. FWIW. I would not even 3 bet the UTG raiser unless he was a loose raiser UTG. I dont like bloating the pot with JJ

Another point, if UTG has QQ+ and you call behind and flop a Jack, you can stack him. If you 3 bet him, he will most likely put you all in with AA, KK (QQ maybe) and you fold like this instance and get no opportunity to stack him.

Also i agree with oakrdrzfan. I'm usually calling an UTG raise with JJ here, especially against a middle stack. As they are more likely to shove all in

And you are right most of the time. Best thing you can do for your bankroll is to fold in these situations .
