Preflop: FOLD!

Flop: check/fold. Why are you trying to bluff 4 other people?

As played, I'd bet the river as well. I think it's unlikely you're beat here.

i dont get the plays up until the rib when in my opinion u suck out as he has a 10 , but u do nuthin but bet on the riv

Re: $16 fire 3rd barrel tptk?
 

dev , why preflop fold ? its folded to him in mp with aj...imo you should have raised

Re: $16 fire 3rd barrel tptk?
 

fold pf, check the 5 way flop with the third nut no pair.... its not even worth bluffing at for t100.
As played, turn bet is Ok, but you can easily be behind here to 44, 33, JT
I would probably bet 300-400 on the riv and fold to any action

Because you are getting very close to have Arag.

Because if you limp, you are going to play a multiway pot out of position, if you don't get raised out of the hand preflop.

Because if you raise and get called, you are not going to want much action if you hit your A.

Because if you are open limping this, bluffing with no draw into 4 opponents, wondering if the river is worth a value bet, then you probably aren't good enough to be playing marginal hands on flops.

the fact that your out of position makes me wana raise preflop n be up against hopefully a range of hands that villain has called with. imo u cant limp , its just setting up the 48j flop where u let the bb in for nowt with 48

Its only the first level, easy fold pf.
