A nice loose-passive table suddenly went mad! bit lost on the flop here, pretty sure theres at least one big PP out there, so overcard outs are probably no good, so I give myself 3 outs for the backdoor posibilities

BB is loose, bordeline maniac (80/20)
MP1 is new to table, so unknown

Well, BB is a maniac, and he didn't limp/cap, he called a raise and then capped. That from an 80/20 maniac to me means he has two cards.

I don't know if I'm raising KQs against five limpers when I'm out of position. Getting 35:1 and closing the action on the flop, you can call profitably even with a single backdoor draw, so this is fine. I like checking the turn with hopes of raising BB, since you have around 20-25% equity and would probably have a lot of opponents. But having it check around isn't a bad result either. Nice river. Postflop looks good to me, and better players than me probably raise preflop as well.

Edit: I'm a genius and totally missed that you also picked up a flush draw on the turn. Man, that was the absolute perfect turn card! Your equity is actually in the 35-40% range (right?), making a bet totally fine, but I like the c/r attempt much more. Too bad the maniac wussed out.
