I really like it the turn check through.

You are likely a made straight. By the river, I really wouldn't expect to win it, this looks like a crying call.

I RR the flop to about 1Xpot, then the turn as well. What are the arguments against it. The whole reason I see to charge bets is to get these straights and gutshots away, this hand needs protection.

I would probably lead out on the flop it being multiway. But after you see a $2 bet and all calls, fold if you really really think youre beat, but seriously I don't see any reason not to put in a big raise here. The pot is significant and the other players probably have junk 2nd and third best hands that can easily draw you out. Big raise on the flop.

The turn could have hit someone's inside straight, but not necessarily. You have to bet here to see where you're at.

By the river, you're completely lost, and probably beat. Getting 4.5 to 1 pot odds I still think you fold, but you avoid this tricky spot with aggresion on previous streets.

and many many many 2-pair combinations. Even the flop may have given any of the villains 2-pair.

I like it. AQ OOP in a multiway pot is not the time to show aggression. Get to a cheap showdown. I'd rather win that small pot than contest and lose a much larger one by a building a pot OOP with TPTK.

I only play 6-max now, but was curious if raising AQo in early position is standard?

Mucking utg, utg+1 is not atypical.

Limping is an option. Raising, usually not a line taken.

Well, that's good to know! I really have no idea how to play preflop at full-ring. What hands are we limping utg-utg2 at full ring?

Me either. How about hands like KJo/A10/etc in MP? Do you guys limp here? Raise?
