The villain was pretty tight, but I was quite busy lately and the table wasn't very happy about that. How do you like my line? Raising for value anywhere or is just calling down OK?

If you think you have the best hand why no value betski on the river?

Gotta bet out on the river I think; a little over half his stack is good, it's often a good enticement for a weak player to push it all in.

As I said I was pretty busy lately so there is a big chance BB will decide to play back at me. And if I'm raised, I must fold, so decided to play some small-ball.

I would almost never raise QJ from the SB unless the BB is shortstacked and I'm pushing. There are a few other circumstances as well around the bubble time but in this spot I would almost always limp.

Why would you raise this?
