too many people in the pot, UTG C-R'd = non-nut flush? I'm folding here 100% of the time.. C'Ring on that board with that many people is like not being concerned with the possibility of a free card, so I think I would give UTG credit.

Betgo, I'd be interested to see why no raise preflop. I understand A10s isn't the best hand in the world HU while it does in fact play well in multiway pots. Having said that, I still don't understand the button limp here.

Raising is playable, as you probably have the best hand and have position if you get called. You have to fold to a limpraise though if you raise.

Obviously, you can connect to a flop in various ways with this hand and you don't mind limping with position. Your hand is probably not that much better than the other limpers. Limping is the more standard play.
