fold preflop...Way to get lucky.

Now, since you decided to play it. Continuation bet on the flop is fine, but I would have folded to any heat.

The BB basically handed this pot to you.

I think you got the most money to be expected.

i agree it's horrible position, but u'd lay down QJs?

[The_Bends]

Yes all day. Its a trouble hand OOP. Remember you only got out of this one through a combination of awful play on his part and a lucky draw.

Ill probably limp and pimp with it. A raise in EP is pretty bad man...im not really sure what it accomplishes as this is really a drawing hand for the most part.

PF UTG? Probably unless it was a really loose table. Big Broadway cards give reverse implied odds. Look you caught runner runner to win the hand. The problem here is that you flopped TPMK and you really don't have position to get away from your hand though you could be way behind KQ/AQ/KK/AA. If you want to play SC which is all QJ really is, you need to have position. Unless you are really good, playing QJs up front is a dangerous proposition.

Muck them...

Actually I'll be a little clearer with my reasons.

QJs is a fine drawing hand that can make some monsters. However its a drawing hand, not a made hand. Even Kx has you up against it. The simple rule is, playing drawing hands OOP is a recipe for disaster. You will get in trouble acting first with draws.

Play it in LP but not early.
