Here is the hand http://www.pokerhand.org/?727532 poker hand (http://www.pokerhand.org/?727532)
Do you like limping the AQ suited here with aggro players behind......... also do you like calling down here and then checking river vs very aggro player? Or would you lead here? obv it worked out, just wondering if you all limp AQ shorthanded from cutoff often..... i've found it very profitable recently

lead on river. Reraise preflop. Dont call flop without reads.

I never limp AQs from the CO, I am not saying that the play can't be profitable though. It all depends on who is sitting behind you. If the players sitting behind you are big fish and you are sure you have a bigger edge postflop to compensate you giving up a little on your preflop edge for example.
I would lead river in your hand. Unless villain consistantly three barrel bluffs I think your opponents are just checking behind here too much without a K. If he has a K he will call you quite a bit, as the flush on the river is a backdoor flush draw.

How about this idea. If you think the players behind you are super aggro and will reraise limpers with any two preflop. How about limp reraising against these kinda players with a hand like AQs. I don't necessarily like limp calling and then playing OOP for the rest of the hand against an aggro player. It's different if the blinds are aggro I suppose. Then I think the limp/call line has some extra value. Especially against weak OOP players.

well I think with a hand like this you do not want to be limping first in, you need to raise this up. AQ you want heads up if possible. As for after it plays out differently, but I would bet flop prob and check turn and bet river for value.
