I don't know if I confused you muze, but I ALWAYS raise with QQ in this situation full stop. Funnily enough, whether I raise with JJ in the SB depends on the site i'm on. Prima I tend to limp cos of the crazy loose Scandies , on Laddies I can usually narrow the field (at worst, if not steal the blinds) AND have a good idea where I am on the flop due to the player I'm against, regardless whether an A/K/Q comes off. On laddies I feel I can make raising with JJ a bigger +EV than on Prima, for example. A bit big-headed me saying this, but the standard of player is considerably different between both sites.
