I HATE min-raises preflop. I will put in an argument to raise here, although with more reads I could change my answer. You should raise to at least see where you are. It's like a player throwing out a huge range to you...now you're lost and have to pay an extra BB to see a flop with a hand you may see more players unnecessarily in the the pot with too...isolate. Make it 550-700.

you have a gut shot top pair and a 3 flush id call here but possibly give up on turn depending on bet size

You're now in a pretty tough spot, but the flop bet is a super easy call to see the turn and re-evaluate.

There's no argument for raising flop that doesn't have you calling a shove from either Villain somewhat unhappily. There's a decent chance with that board texture bigchipski would c/r into mulitple opponents, esp if he mashed that flop with a set or two pair. (Raising for information proponents are like futurists, btw. They're generally wrong.)

Flatcall flop, keep stack sizes too awkward for a flop c/s or a possible b/s from flop lead bettor. Even then, still facing a lot of high-variance turn situations.

Same as you would in a 3-bet pot on that board. If it's HU, your options are significantly easier to weed out on flops. Probably ck-ck flop, bet-assess(fold/jam), or bet-fold, bet-call, bet-shove flop.

I realize AQs is easier to repop than AQo. That doesn't mean, however, you should adjust by callstationing AQo. Losing too much value long-term, especially early in MTT's.
