Yes, a terrible idea to go for the checkraise on the river. But I'm mainly interested in the pre-flop call. The limp/re-raise from MP1 threw me for a loop. Should I have folded pre-flop? 3-bet?

Once you decided to call the CO's raise you should call the 3-bet etc. I like the way you played the rest. Trying for c/r on the river was ok, but it was a scare card for everyone else so betting out might've been a better option when you are first to act with the nut flush.

I think calling the first flop raise is not a great move but not terrible if you expect CO would raise a pretty wide range of hands. I think calling a limp/reraise and then cap with AJo is really bad. Even though the pot is laying you 8:1, you are VERY likely dominated here.

Once its capped back to you on a limp-reraise then cap, you should fold AJo. It's just asking for trouble to call.
