Yes. When the board pairs up you have to be ready to run away from any sort of action, unless you're holding the nut boat (or quads, heh). In the meantime, feel free to send me your JJ's.

JJ is significantly stronger than AKo. If you believe statistics, even very low pocket pairs are better than unsuited big cards, if you can tolerate higher bankroll swings. (And depending on what you consider big cards, your play may be simply wrong -- stuff like KTo is trash in my opinion.)
Edit: I could give some more guidelines, but since we're all geeks here, just play with a number-cruncher and/or visit the twoplustwo.com forums. (Can't go wrong when it says "moderated by Mat Sklansky" at the bottom).
Edit again: that program is not very good for accurately measuring pre-flop hands against a broad field, greatly deemphasizing the value of draws because it doesn't consider the extra money that will be in the pot. I'll have to dig up the link to the one I'm really thinking of.
