AQ from SB, flops an A

You should have raised preflop. Not because you hope to drive anyone out, but because you have a very strong (and probably the best) hand.

Flop is a must bet as you played it and even more so if you had raised preflop

Your poor position throughout the hand often negates the value of your semi-strong hand. I'd just complete with this many limpers. AQo is good but it's far from a great hand.

We are leaving too much on the table by not raising this preflop. Like .5 SB worth of value. And if someone has limped with a truely trashy hand like J5o then not raising would be a crime imo.
