QJs hand in middle position, flop comes the wrong suit
Comments on all streets, please. In particular, should I have 3-bet the flop? I'm trying to correct anything going wrong with my postflop play, because I posted my stats last night and people didn't see anything too horrendous going on there to explain my losses so far other than just running bad.

Raise preflop. You played it fine postflop.

i think this is the best way to play it. sb might have 2 pair or a pair + A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. when he checks the turn it pretty obvious that you are ahead.

Re: QJs hand in middle position, flop comes the wrong suit
Hm, I was considering raising, but decided that I'd have liked to be in the CO or on the button to raise with this hand. It was in my first orbit at the table, so I didn't have any very sophisticated reads on any of the players. I'm raising here preflop because the limper probably has a weaker hand than mine, and to hopefully knock out Ax and Kx hands behind me?

And possibly gain position, and take initiative in the hand. When he misses and you bet, you take down the pot. If you limp, different story. You want to try to fold everyone else out and increase your chances of winning the pot right now.
