Fold preflop, fold turn.

There's nothing wrong with raising from your position pre-flop, although I would have probably just called here and folded to a big reraise. Folding is fine too at level one.

Flop is a check/fold...you can wait for a better spot to put your chips in than this scary ass board.

Even if I raise preflop, I can't even put in a continuation bet?

This is why calling pre-flop is better than raising with a marginal hand like AQo IMHO (Yes, it is a marginal hand at lvl 1).

If you are going to make a continuation bet, you don't need to bet the pot. If he's going to fold, he'll fold to a 1/2 size or 3/4 size pot bet here.

Eeehhhh If you're going to play AQo in level 1, play it from late position, and raise it.
