Default Re: 3-bet with QJs and flop 2 pair. and then....

Fold preflop. QJ plays terribly OOP in a re-raised pot. Take him on the 5/6 times you have position on him, not here and not after you've 3-bet him 9-10 times in the last 80 hands. If you do decide to get frisky against him from the SB, smaller suited connectors are preferable because the reverse implied ods aren't as bad.

With all that said, as played I don't necessarily mind checking except for the obvious concern that he could take a free card, and there are 8 cards you're petrified of. Also, check raising this deep is kinda awkward because if stacks go in you're likely in trouble... I really don't know how to approach this hand on the flop, actually, it's a pretty gross spot.

Once it's checked through, however, I'm happy getting my chips in and think you should lead for pot on the turn.

River is a C/F.
