I dont know what hands should I cbet on this flop, so I decided to check/fold.

After he checks on the flop, I decided that I have some value on the hand, so Im trying to get to the showdown, but he bets on the turn, so I decided to call once and then give up if he continues with agression. am I using the right thinking process on this hand?

I don´t 3bet pocket pairs - I play it to set mine only. As played I´m cbetting the flop, because JQ are in our range due to preflop game. As played delayed c bet OTT would be a good option as well. I think we can call OTT because I see some bluffs in his range. However as I said in the beginning I play pocket pairs to set mine, so when I don´t hit it OTF I usually give up right there.

I would 3bet only a bit smaller pocket pairs but I guess this is not bad.
OTF I would bet because you might very well be ahead and you have to protect your hand.
