5/10 live button play. QJs
This is a situation that came up today while I was playing. Everyone limped so 7 players limped. I'm on the button and get QJd. In this situation at a typical small stakes game do I raise knowing everyone will call(has been happening all night) or do I just call. I think raising would be best for the flush or possible straight draws. Any comments.

There are some fundamental concepts you seem to be missing there, but other posters who are more eloquent than I can talk about that stuff.
This is a very standard raise because we have a large equity edge. |

You raise not because you have the best hand but because QJs "wins more than its fair share"
I believe that quote is direct from SSHE. |

I agree, button always raises this even if the BB might 3Bet. Good hand + postion = yeah.

raise is fine, call isn't quite as good but if you're on a short roll or newly moved up or whatever you can do that

Raise for value, position and you have a good multi way hand here. Being on the button if you miss on the flop, a lot of times you can get a free look at the turn if need be.
