One thing i would reccomend doing is not posting results to skew replies.

But to the hand I am raising that preflop prob 100% of the time. I honestly really do not like that flop bet since you did not show signs of aggression and with that draw heave board and you only having overs and the backdoor to a queen high flush the bet just does not seem like it would accomplish enough. Once the turn gives you the queen easy bet and likewise on the river

I usually don't like leading out in early position with AQo. I suppose I've been burned too many times with it.

Preflop: AQo does not play well multiway. If you want to play it, you must raise.

Flop: If this were HU I may bet, but you have absolutely noting on a draw heavy board. Check it since you do not want to give drawing hands good odds to call on the turn in case you hit your hand.

Turn: Obviously you bet here since you made your hand. There is probably no way to go for a check raise to protect your hand.

River: Again, no way to check raise. Bet and hope to get called by as many worse hands as possible. If raised, I would probably reraise.

That was my main question, I suppose. I couldn't think of a way a c/r would work.

Do not bluff this flop, there are six people in, the flop most likely hit at least one of them, you do not have any cards that improve you, that you should be comfortable with.

I'll agree that leading on that flop after not raising PF is a bit fishy.

My question is how do you figure that Hero doesn't have any cards that would improve him (that he should be comfortable with)?

I do not think you can ever really be comfortable with a one pair hand in a multihanded pot.

My thought was that with 6 limpers (including myself), I could represent that the flop *did* hit me, and hope to fold out some overcards.

What concerns you most, my betting that flop as UTG+1? Couldn't I be representing limping in with a middle suited connector? Thanks for the comments.

I think that getting comfortable is something you should work on then. This sounds like weak/tight thinking to me.
