I know there are multiple, but I'm not sure if every single play was a mistake, or just most of them.

Flop raise is fine, I might make it a tiny bit more. On the turn, its probably best just to call the bet when there are two people showing enough interest to call your raise.

Prelop and flop both look pretty good. ATs is a decent limping hand from MP2 so no problem there. On the flop, I REALLY like your raise here. It could buy you the best position if the button folds, it builds the pot for your potential flush, and it could give you a free river card if you don't hit on the turn.

Turn: This raise I'm not too crazy about. UTG+2 pulls a stop n' go, but bets so small that he's giving you great odds for your flush (unless he's sitting on an already made boat, in that case you're screwed). Your TP4K is not really a raising hand, call and see what the river brings. If the flush comes on the river, put your stack behind it. If no flush, then I'd call a small UTG+2 bet, and fold to any reasonably sized one. I don't think your pair of aces by itself is a winner here.

i dont like flop raise for three reasons. 1. this game is too loose/dumb for this type of semi bluff to take the pot on on the flop 2. there are too many poeple in the pot 3. if you know someone is giong to call you on the flop, you would rather have a whole bunch of people call you so fatten your implied odds. (potential for people to catch their pair on turn and river and pay you off is nice is goood)

the reason you could raise here is because of fold equity, but you get very little fold equity for those two reasons. just call, and you can raise the turn if you want. overall calling may be better, considering how many people saw the flop, and the chances someone hit trips. if i raised, id only raise to like 6 though.
