I'm sorry to say, but I don't like your call. You will be out of position against two oponents postflop and bearing a hand that can easily be dominated, hence costing you your whole stack. Until your stack is really enlarged (which would probably mean doubling up, but I dunno why you'd like to stay for next orbit after doubling up) your move surely lacks implied odds which are so desperately needed while playing suited connectors.

And are we to say QJs is a suited connector? I guess we are since it's high card value diminishes when you happen to fight against AJ or KQ.

Wouldn't do that, at least not on NL20. There are plenty other spots you can invest your big blind (like staying at the table for another orbit).

Yep, QJs is very dangerous hand, most of the time you lose with them and in big run they wouldn't bring you profit so just fold them here.
