Default Qc Jc in big blind

Paradise Poker $30 single table NL Limit Tournament

In the third hand of the tournament I’m in the BB with Qc Jc It’s folded around to #8 seat who raises to $80. SB calls, I call.

Flop Qh Kc 9c I check, Raiser makes it $150 SB folds, I call.

Turn Jh I check, Raiser makes it $400 I push all-in $270 more. Raiser calls and shows Qd ,Td

River 9d

Preflop: I think Raiser has a good pocket pair, AK, AQ. My call was an attempt to trap on a good flop but I can see now I was a dog to most flops. A raise would be a mistake a fold probably correct. If the blinds were higher and we were 4 or 5 way I definitely would have raised.

Flop: I was thinking like a limit player. I thought clubs, queens, tens and jacks were outs. The check was horrible. A raise or check-fold should have been my only options.

Turn: I really liked this card but a check-raise was wrong. Better $400 raise and fold to an all-in. I could still come back with $270 and the blinds being so small.

I would love some comments.
