With no reads it's generally a flat call especially with stacks this deep.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

Call/donk flop is my usual line w/JJ against unknowns here.

I like a reraise so I can fold to a 4-bet. I don't want to get in trouble with a semi-weak overpair on a rag flop.

call/donk.

3betting sucks, his utg range will either call or shove and is unlikely to fold. When our 3bet gets called we´ve basically gained no info, but are confronted with an inflated pot oop.

Yep, I learned it the hard way. I 3bet (too small mind you), he calls. Flop is KQx and now I feel the obligation to represent (because of the 3bet), he raises, and I fold like a wuss.
