Here's how I play connectors in limit games:
QJ or better, call from any position.
JT-87 fold in early position, call in late, unless suited, then call from any position.
76 to 54, call only if suited and in late position.
43 or worse, only from the blind.

And with gapped connectors:
KJ or KT, call from any position.
QT or J9, fold early, call late, unless suited, then call anytime.
T8, 97, 86, call only if suited and in late position.

It usualy works for me, but today I missed out on a couple of really big pots folding JT and T9. When I had T9, the flop came 78J, and trip J's got in a raising war with trip 7's. I really could've made some $ there. Should I play these looser?

Anything under 10 J suited I'm hesitant to play unless I'm late in position and there are a good bit of people in the pot with me. Connectors are probably one of the parts of my game that I play a little too conservatively but I just don't like paying off bets and/or raises on what's already putting me in a drawing situation.
