A specific QJs hand

[Thebram]

This kind of goes along with the other QJs threads floating around right now, but I didn't want to hijack another thread with my hand.

I guess my general question is, did I play this well, or did I overplay it and just get lucky?

Should I have gone for the free card on the turn, or was my draw strong enough to pump up the pot?
