OK so I guess me opening JTs and QTs sometimes UTG is no good...

JTs is down at 57.51% heads-up against the deck. Way overated shorthanded.

QTs is 59.44%.

Looking at 'hot and cold' equity as the end all be all in this situation is a pretty severe conceptual error. Even though KTo is a 'better' hand that JTs, I'd much rather have the latter because it plays much cleaner post flop. To put it another way, you probably drag more pots with KTo, but the pots you win with JTs will tend to be larger, and by an amount large enough to make up the difference comfortably.
