Fold.If he's making a play with a smaller pair, then :club: for him, but I don't like re-raising all-in with J-J on that board.I doubt he's fooling around, and if he is then you'll catch him later - with a better hand.

Certainly don't push, you're only getting called by a hand that beats you. Fold and wait for a better spot, preferable in position.
I only have about 700 left if i call so I'm pretty much pot committed. IF I decide to go further in this hand I don't think calling and letting a K or A fall on the turn is a great idea. If I decide he's raising with nothing I have to push him out right now and not let him draw out on me... correct?

I definetely think he has king queen here..however, I don't think you we can rule out a smaller pair here, this really isn't a scary board for pocket 8's, 9's, ect..but, with no real reads on the player, wait for a better spot... dump it..

Dump it. You tested the waters with a decent-sized lead bet on the flop, and he came back with a decent-sized reraise. Give him benefit of the doubt and move on. If you fold now you still have about 1300 chips and the blinds are still low. Your only other option is to push back at him - do you really want to do that in this situation?

Most of the time this is an easy fold. If you have a read on the villain then you go with that. There is one guy that I play with occasionally in MTTs who LOVES the stop and go shove with small to medium pairs, regardless of the pot size. So, last time we played, I raised in MP with TT, flop came with one over and two baby cards, he open shoved, and I beat him into the pot (and was right). So, reads can change your action here, but in general, easy fold.
