Default How to properly play QJ

Since I often see QJ overplayed ( sometimes I am the one overplaying it) I will post an insightfull link I stole from cardplayer.com that offers some suggestions for playing this cover hand. If you are one of the players that think QJ is a strong hand and you almost always play it, you NEED to read this. Is specifically is talking about limit, but much of this can be carried over to NL too.

yeah, very good link, I sometime overplay this hand...
QKs can be be devastator too. Just a tip, if you got 2 pair with JQ or QK, just look for the straight possibility, it will hit you one day, and you'll regret it

This is very true, i like J10 better because if you make two pair and there is a straight possibility, then usually there will be higher cards on the board, so you are more awawre of the straight as well as a higher two pair.. jq is the ultimate deceivor though. Jaqueeze!!!!!!!!
