Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

BB: 100 BB
UTG: 107.4 BB
MP: 132.4 BB
CO: 67.8 BB
Hero (BTN): 132.6 BB
SB: 150.6 BB

SB posts SB 0.4 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.4 BB) Hero has J♥ J♦

fold, fold, fold, Hero raises to 2.4 BB, SB raises to 7 BB, fold, Hero calls 4.6 BB

Flop: (15 BB, 2 players) 8♣ 8♥ 4♣
SB bets 7 BB, Hero calls 7 BB

Turn: (29 BB, 2 players) 9♦
SB bets 10 BB, Hero calls 10 BB

River: (49 BB, 2 players) T♣
SB checks, Hero checks

How would you this hand. I think there's a couple of options to play this differently:
1. Preflop could be a 4bet - I try to mix this up a bit. Here I decided to call
2. Flop/ Turn: I wonder if it makes sense to get more aggressive here. The only issue that I see is that there are barely any worse hands calling me - there's really only TT and 99 (on the Flop), maybe 77, 66. Of course, he will call any Flushdraw + Overcards, but he could also shove them against my raise (where he would often have ~50% equity).
3. River: I think I should bet this river. I think QQ+ would often bet, maybe I can get value from AT, A9, T9. However, with the possible flush coming in, I feel like I have to b/f and he might make some tight folds.

What flop without a J are you looking for, when calling JJ PF?
If villain puts pressure, do you fold the overpair?

BCS if you are looking to play JJ only as overpair, it won't happen a lot of times and even when it happens, you are behind the hands that you were PF AND you lose value for AQ/AK.
Considering everything I think 4betfold wouod be my line

Without any info in a BTN against SB situation I would 4bet most of the time or you think villain is really tight.
If you play like this I would call both streets as well and consider a 1/3 pot value bet on the river.
