Anything I should have done differently? Did I handle the turn properly with Q being a scare card?

I probably would have 3-bet the flop, and continued betting the turn -- I have pretty much no respect for someone who's almost all in and limp-raises preflop.

PF: I don't think raising AJo from the SB is a good idea. If it were s000ted, then go ahead. If it were AQ+ then of course raise it up. And then you re-raise the limp re-raise? That's even worse.

Flop: I don't know what you thought you were doing. You capped the pre-flop betting and hit TPTK on the flop... but you check-call? If you're going to check (which I think is a terrible play given these situations), then at least check-raise here. I'd much prefer leading out with a bet and re-raising any raise.

Turn: Since you haven't defined your hand at all... check-calling is "okay" here. If you went with the lead out on the flop then you should certainly lead out here as well.

River: Good value betting.

suited: [Js]

Whoops, I misread the flop action slightly. Still, I would argue for re-raising that flop. I think it's a bit too weak-tight to raise-call TPTK on flops like these.

On the turn... if you 3-bet it and was met with call-call, there's no reason to assume you're behind. There's also no reason to assume someone is holding a Q (other than QJ). That's when I'd argue for leading out the turn. If you were 4-bet, then check-call the turn and hope to hit one of your outs on the river because you probably need to improve.
