haha ya ultimately i guess it did work! but i actually think i played the hand wrong. i did go for the value bet, but then i got raised and decided that given the situation is was nearly impossible that he was bluffing or that my QJ was good so i folded. i think i shud have just check called thus minimizing my loss and giving my opponents an option to bluff, afterall in order to make a value bet you have to get called by a worse hand, which with only QJ is hard to do, my opponent could easily have a full house with Q5,Q8 etc.
to bet in the spot that i did and expect to have the best hand and get paid off my opponent has to have sumthin like AK or Q10. unlikely.
