Folding for 1 bet in a MONSTER pot? (40bb final)
 

I cant figure out what im ahead of on this turn, not sure if the line is to call one and fold to a raise/3bet. Preflop raiser is 30/18. To be honest i doubt im even ahead on this flop. One of the biggest 3/6 pots ive seen though, pretty interesting.

Although you are technically folding for a single bet on the turn here, it is EXTREMELY likely that the pot will be raised at least once before it gets back to you. On the flop, 4 different players put in bets/raises, and the only likely holdings for these players which you might beat are lower aces (quite unlikely), or straight-draws. Regardless, you can't expect all of your opponents to be on these hands, and are almost certainly behind here. Therefore, I don't think you can afford to get yourself trapped into calling down with an inferior hand here.

Good fold.

CO's flop line is terrifying. you almost certainly don't have the best hand, and you have no real draws, and it is very likely that CO raises the turn behind you. I like the fold, right where you made it.

I'm not sure I like that flop line out of position. I think I may have donked into the PFR on that flop -- especially if he is aggro postflop (which 30/18 I would assume he is), but I'm not sure about that line either. I'd like to hear what others think about the flop.

The Co seems to either have trips or a flush made on the turn, right?

Easy fold I think. I would have 3-bet PF too.

I was thinking the same thing. For value, and to see if MP caps it.
Anyone find a fold on the flop when it's 2 back to you?
It's not clear we have that many clean outs that don't lead to redraws and such..
Without a flush draw I don't see top pair doing that well with 5 people and at least 2 of them that like their hands.

I also would have bet into the PFR on this flop but am unsure as well.

yeah, if everyone calls which seems likely you are getting 30-2.
