How to handle a reraise when holding QJ suited.
When in posisition i tend to raise with QJ suited. When a reraise apairs I've become more reluctant to call. I haven't hitthat much, but I seem to be beaten quite a lot, even on AJ/AK or even pocket K and A.
Should I play more agressively with a hand like that?

Here's some charts I thought it may help.

Sizings and positions matter, but usually you are not making a big mistake by folding QJs to a 3-bet. As you say, the hand suffer from a lot of domination, and often, when you flop top pair, that just sets you up to lose a big pot to someone having a better kicker or an overpair.
