AQ--Standard??

UTG is 48/13/1.4 and often overplays hands.

BB is 19/11/1.7.

Standard? 3-bet the flop?

I don't think it's standard, but I don't think it's bad.

Personally, I would 3bet the flop with those 2 cold callers; you get a lot of value with them in, and when the turn checks through I want to cut.

3-bet the flop. You can't protect your hand against the coldcallers who are going to the river, so you might as well get the money in on the flop and not risk a turn checkthru.
