I think QJ is fine to raise UTg but im probably folding K-10 off i think there is much more value due to QJ being connected

Wasting money. UTG is not the place to be raising (or even playing) QJo.

since you know what spew is now, you should be reminded that this is spew. to be honest, raising is probably better than limping w/this as you will fold out good players. . . until they catch on that you are raising this light. so just don't do it, these hands are too weak to "mix it up" from utg.

I wouldn't be raising pf with QJo but after that I play it the same

[/ QUOTE ]As a default I play quite tight; I'd raise all pp, AJ+, KQ+, maybe QJs. If there are players behind me that 3bet light I'm removing some of the offsuit hands. I'm playing 22/16 so I guess I'm tighter in EP and looser in LP compared to you, as I really hate playing OOP.

Rebuy before the hand. Either dump it preflop or make a bigger raise. Pot size won't thin out the field in 25NL even when it's coming from UTG and you don't really want to play a TP or even a draw from oop when your raise is called in a few spots preflop and the pot is getting big.
I think I flat call the c/minraise and push on a safe turn. While c/minraise on the flop are mediocre hands or draws often, the amount of possible draws here is so vast, that I don't want to commit myself here already.

Well, turn and river cards were both horrible. I'm pretty sure you lost here.
