JJ vs AT is a lopsided race — only one of AT's cards is an overcard to the pair. JJ wins 70.3%, AT wins 29.3%, and 0.4% of boards chop. With roughly half the outs of a true two-overcard flip, AT is a clear 2.4-to-1 dog that usually needs to pair its live card (or find a sneaky straight/two-pair runout) to win.
Here's the intuition behind 70.5% to 29.5%: JJ wins roughly 2 of every 3 times the chips go in, but the underdog cashing 29.5% of the time is exactly why you can't slow-play and let it draw for free.
How you play JJ vs AT depends on which side you hold. With JJ you're not crushing, so keep the pot controllable and take the 70.3% edge to showdown when you can; with AT, your equity is enough to continue with initiative but thin enough that bloating the pot out of position is a trap.
