There's a lot of viable lines here, but the way it went down, I like checkraising the turn.

Would you care to explain why you fold the river?

I realize the MP1 bet is strange and with two callers you are probably beat, but it I would expect to chop the pot often enough to make it worth a bet, since you are last to act and cant get raised.

Maybe I am missing something - I think I may have a leak calling to many river bets.

No, I think the call on the river was necessary. I think I made quite a few mistakes here and this was indicative of some of the recent difficult situations I've been put into where I just default to calling down with odd boards and get a bit scared when the default loose passive 2/4 fish bets into you. Anyway, CO pulled out JJ like chief444 postulated, MP1 pulled out T8o, and the other caller had KK.

Leading the turn doesn't suck at all here.

What's up with the river fold?

I was being weak-tight as [censored] and the odd bet out to the ostensibly blank river was awfully strange to me.

Strange for sure, but worth a call for a single bet no?

Why wasn't this a fold much earlier? Say the turn.
Was it because you figured the 2 would get counterfeited in your favor?

On the turn, A2=AQ, and plenty of worse hands will call..

i know im going to be called a moron and an idoit for the way i would play this hand but ohwell.

Pre-flop i would fold the hand, A 2s goes way down in value in multi way pot

This is 180 degrees wrong dude. Ace anything suited is a perfect hand to play in a multiway pot. When you hit your flush you beat everyone and take down a huge pot. The pot in this hand has 9 bets in it already all hero has to do is put one more in to see a flop. 9-1 odds. Think about it.
