2nd hand. I think I played questionable pf, turn, and river.

I would have checked the turn for pot control.

Pre-flop I call because my rule is two limper to call with suited connectors, however my other rule is also suited connector are not for pairs. This is why JQ sucks as a SC because you get married to the pairs easily IMO.
I don't think it would be atall bad to disclude JQs any of our play early on in a SnG because I think they play so bad a a SC.
I check behind on the turn and v-bet the river which is shit if he shoves coz this looks like a badly played 9x.
As played I think you have to call the river.

I think all streets are fine apart from the turn, which as Wildbob and TwoKicker already said, I'd check behind for sure.

Preflop is fine
Flop I think is OK, it was checked around to you, so you might as well take a stab at it.
Turn card is not a great card for you, because 2nd pair is definitly a possibility for villian, but it also gives you a FD, I dont mind the bet here.
I would check behind the river, opp called flop and turn bet, he is either drawing or slowplaying, or called the flop with 2nd pair and hit his trips on the turn.
There are very few hands that would call the flop and turn and will pay you off on the river that you are ahead off. The only case is if villian really sucks and had JT and decides his 2nd pair is good or had Qx and played it like a moron
