Although with AQs its OK to smooth call pre flop to get a multi-way pot, in this hand Iwould raise. You are on the button & want to assert that you are in control & you may force a hand like 33 or A3 to fold to 3 bets.


You must raise the flop. There are 2 clubs on the board & you want to make it expensive for drawing hands. If you get reraised, then there is a good chance that you are already behind &

would fold here, or on the turn, if not significantly improved.


I would not call 2 bets cold on the turn. With this board somebody certainly beats a pair of As.
