1500 stack 10 20 blinds in an sng 18 man 20 dollar game. Standard table. Not much info. How would you play jack queen suited in the utg plus one seat. I limped this time and then someone popped to 100 with another person calling behind do you make the call then oop?

Never ever , Ever never


fold, fold,fold

If you're going to limp, then you fold to the raise.

Probably should fold preflop, but early on, doesn't hurt to see if you can 'catch lightning in a bottle' as Sexton would say. A limp/fold to a raise works ok here, but remember, you are OOP, and JQ can be easily dominated. You aren't playing this hand to hit the Q or the J, but to flop a straight or flush draw. As long as you remember that, you should be ok after the flop here. But if you can't fold TP, then you should just fold this one preflop.

QJ is the new AQ, apparently. This hand gets overplayed so much it amazes me. It's just dominated so many different ways, and when it hits top pair it's still behind practically every raising hand.

In your scenario limping pf can be acceptable if the table's very passive, because your M is huge. However at a normal table with aggressive players folding in that spot is as standard as it gets - as is folding to any sort of raise absent a read. This is basic, textbook Texas Hold 'Em.

getting 3.5:1 odds its a no brainer call PF.

If your text book says fold any reasonable hand getting 3.5:1 odds PF, throw it out. you can disagree with the limp, especially in a SnG, but as Action Dan says, once youve "made a mistake" you have to evaluate your next action based on the circumstances at the time, and folding for 70tc here is a horrible play.
