I decided to x/raise as a bluff here since I think I am lacking bluffs in this spot and my hands do block QJs heavily and unblock his FDs. I might play AA and KQs this way, maybe even AQ.
I think given his sizing, he sometimes might have an Ace.. (or is this too optimistic?) Because if he hasnt got an Ace, its calling>raising, because trying to fold out his Qx is way too assumptive.
I think given there were many draws, I can imagine him holding an Ace

The problem with turning JJ into a bluff is that once he starts to be polarized to a Qx OTT, we are most likely beating his bluffs, so we dont benefit that much by folding this part of his range, however, once he value bets Ax OTT, I believe we have got enough fold equity, so raising becomes the best option then..

I would say usually Ax are just a xb OTT, but given the drawy runout, I am not so sure..
