Who says itachi onky has a few shots? You do realize that the fight versus sasuke waa the only battle he was pushed to his limit in, and he still nearly outlasted hebi sasuke who had more stamina. You are missing the point that had sasuke not been an uchiha, he would have lost way back when he got caught in tsyukyomi. Itachi landing tsyukyomi is one shot kill for jiraiya. His battle with sasuke got dragged out because he was holding back, nearly blind, stopped taking his medication. And tsyukyomi takes out 30 percent of his chakra and it wasn't to much good use because sasuke is one of the only people who could break it. And that was after he split his stamina in half using a kage bunshin. Those genjustu he used beforehand sapped a little bit of his chakra too. Then he was still able to surround the mountain with amaterasu after using a grand fire ball and amaterasu before that, all before holding outnwith susanoo for a decent while. Itachi's reserves are shit compared to jiraiya, but let's not act like  itach I doesn't compensate for that with the one hit kill moves. If jiraiya can only open with a couple of frogs ( excluding sage mode) then streaming some amaterasu against big targets isn't that hard for a healthy itachi who isn't holding back. The only other technique that drains a lot of chakra with single use is tsyukyomi and he only loses chakra for that if it lands. Susanoo drains him alot over time but he has shown that even while sick he can hold it for a decent amount of time after doing alot of chakra taxing techniques.
