NL50 QJs riverbluff

Don't look wtsd% for only 391 hands.
I like to raise turn 33-35bb so river bluff is cheaper and also ship most rivers.
But biggest problem is calling flop(should be easy fold vs tight utg range), preflop might be -ev( i would not call there)

Really, not calling preflop? I think it's too strong to fold though... what range do you call bu vs utg?

I'm 3 betting prety much all my broadway suited hands. QTs;JQs;JTs are sometimes fold, depending about utg range, against this 23/17 small sample i would fold 50% times those hands.
I'm not saying calling is -ev but you really need to have decent postflop plan and even then you don't make much money with that play.(best case slightly more than folding but obviusly it's good if you have wider range).

I think calling suited all suited broadways in BTN should be fine against an average UTG range when you are somewhat deep, as long as you don't spew much postflop. I would call something like this (maybe 3betting some Axs some % of the times): QQ-22,A2s+,KTs+,QTs+,JTs,T9s,98s,AQo+

On the flop I wouldn't raise anything, and call something like this: QQ-88,44,AKs,A8s,A4s,KTs+,98s,AhQh,AsQs,AcQc,AhJh,AsJs,AcJc,AhTh,AsTs,AcTc,Ah9h,As9s,Ac9c,Ah7h,As7s,Ac7c,Ah6h,As6s,Ac6c,Ah5h,As5s,Ac5c,Ah3h,As3s,Ac3c,Ah2h,As2s,Ac2c,AKo (sets, all pairs 8x or better, A4s, and Axs backdoors)

On the turn I would raise 88/99 for value (6 combos), and raise A8s,A4s,Ah9h,As9s as bluff (8 combos). I think your actual hand QcJc is a very good turn call. And I agree with urmo1 to raise bigger, to set up a possible river shove.

After raising turn, I would jam river with sets, and A8s/A4s no flushdraw (4 combos) as bluff. I might be wrong, but they seem like decent bluffhands to me, blocking sets and AK from Villain's possible calldown range.
