Facing a 4-bet, QJ is basically a worse suited connector than for example JT, 98, 87, because you block the weaker part of villain's 4-betting range (e.g. KJs QTs AJo) so you're facing a value heavy range to begin with. On top of that villain's 4-betting range is in a very good spot against QJ specifically with it containing all the remaining AQ, AJ, QQ, and JJ combo's. If you're ever peeling with a suited connector do it with JT, 98, 87, 76 because you then almost certainly play with two live cards while still drawing to the same good stuff as QJ. If you're never 3-betting those, marginal hands that still block the top of villain's range are better calls (KJ, KQ, A5).

As played, the best you can do in this situation on this board is not make an overfolding mistake. You really don't have any business betting on a high board as the pre-flop caller even after villain checking the turn. The river is a pure bluff catch question so if you want the unexploitable answer you can calculate the MDF and see if you can call as low as middle pair. Probably an edge case because you're showing up with a lot of junk considering the action, but the river overbet allows you to fold more so I don't really know.

I guess the exploitative adjustment at NL10 is to almost fold range and only stack with something like two-pair + but I don't know this villain and if they are a good reg best stick to a solid strategy.
