To tell you a bit about what came across my mind while playing this :
-Preflop : QJs is a good hand, I raise hoping to make fold one or more player.
-Postflop : I don't have anything, they both checked so I checked back to see the turn.
-Turn : Now I have top pair (JJ) with a queen kicker. I think about raising x2.5 or x3, but instead I shove, hoping to make him fold. I don't want him to see the river, cause I think I'm ahead at this point and I may not be after, cause my hand is not that strong.
Afterwards, I feel like I should just have called, as they didn't seem like good players, and when this kind of player check the flop and bet on the turn, it often means they got something.
