Very tough spot. A raise to isolate makes no sense here, apart from bloating the pot. I think you can safely asume someone has an Ace. Maybe call the bet on the flop, to see if you can catch a miracle card? But I think you're pretty much screwed here...

calls on flop and calls turn and then hits Q on river and bets! Someone could be betting out a flush draw. There's only 3 more aces left in this entire deck... the question is, does someone there have one?

looking at one "CLEAN" out in this action, and if you hit it, you still can be redrawn.

nh, but a fold here is necessary.

I think this is a pretty easy fold. Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] would swing this to a call but more than likely I fold the turn.

:grunch:

I usually fold pocket pairs when there is an overcard on the flop when there is over 4 players. When it's 2-3 it's more of a judgement call and 1 player has got to show you an ace. Here you have 5 villains, fold.

Folds. WAY too many people for your hand to be good and even if you spike a 3rd Q on the turn, it might give someone else a straight or a flush.
