If anyone has anything to say on other streets, feel free to comment on my play. My main worry is the river though, do I check and hope for checks behind?

Depending on how loose this table has been, playing AT unsuited is marginal for me pre-flop from MP-1. Odds are you're second best with TT after the flop. If these guys are typical passive players, I'd say at least one has a pair of Jacks, at least one flush draw and one straight draw. I wouldn't bet the turn and I'd fold to any bet from there. My take is you're probably way behind at least to one person with a set.

MUBS. Nobody has shown any strength, and that Q likely doesn't help anybody. Lead out again, fold to a raise.

Raise preflop.

Bet/ fold river.

Unless it's a table of complete donks, I think raising preflop might push out all hands except the ones that dominate you ... then your stuck playing a dominated hand out of position ....

That's tough. I'm torn between a thin value bet and check/fold. Players at 0.02/0.04 are so random, that I think we can find some value in a bet. BTW, value betting weak made hands was one of the first topics 2+2 really helped me with when I was at the level you're at.

FWIW, everything else looks OK.
