Default 2/4 AQo in a big multi way pot

Average pretty much straightforward 2/4 crowd. Mostly on the loose passive side but nothing too extreme.

I get A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] in the Hijack.

UTG, UTG+1 and MP3 all call, I raise, the button cold calls, blinds fold everbody else calls.

We go 5 to the flop with 11.5sb in the middle.

J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

UTG checks, UTG+1 bets, MP3 Calls, I raise, the button cold calls, UTG folds, UTG+1 3 bets, MP3 calls two more cold, I call, button calls.

We go four to the turn with 11.75 BBs in the middle.

Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Checked to me. I bet, button calls, UTG+1 calls, MP3 raises, I fold.

Let me have it.

Edit for flop action.

Why bet/fold the turn? fair enough the bet, but I'd call for the K, yeah you might split. But the pot is massive.

you must call that turn raise. you can fold the river UI, but you have odds to draw to the gutshot for one more.

Why raise the flop? You aren't going to clean up any Q or A outs, you probably don't have the best hand at this point (with a loose passive betting into you), any OESD will still have odds to chase, getting three-bet really sucks here.

I'd call the flop, and raise the turn on a Q or and A, otherwise fold.

well, i'm not raising this flop and i'll tell you why. when the 10,j,x (r) falls with 4 other players, my absolute best hope is my gutshot to the nuts. any ace or any queen is problematic in the sense that one of the others could easily make 2 pair (if they don't have it already) or even broadway. even if i were to backdoor 2 pair, all they would need is one stinking k to beat me...the flop will chill my action for sure....

Anybody else not like the flop raise?

I can't fold and raising gives me a chance at the button and a free card option. I frequently raise in situations like this. Is this a leak?

Should I have taken the free card even though I improved? I figured I had to charge any draws in case I was ahead. Too remote?

Also how bad is the turn fold? I know the pot is huge but the K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] is tainted and even when I hit I am going to split quite a bit.

the line was very nice
raise pre flop raise flop (coordinated + continuation of pf aggression)maybe folds sum people etc
then the Q comes i think for bet again, call down if u get re raised at this point

If you didn't raise the flop (and got three bet), and woke up when the Q spiked, it'd be a pretty safe fold to aggression on the turn.
