id raise the flop given its super likely YHIG. if not, lead turn with a nice bet. the way you played, you are likely ahead on the river and missing value. bet something small like 225

edit: nvm on river, missed the CO

I don't mind the call PF, but I think I like a small value raise on the flop. Tons of callers, your hand is likely good, will most likely get 1 or 2 callers after a raise and will limit the field at the same time. This seems ideal to me. I am not thrilled about giving a lot of people cheap cards here, and, in 6 handed, you have to make chips where you can...this looks like a good spot to me.

Me too. The biggest problem of playing that hand the way you played it is you are in no man's land of where you are in the hand. Raise PF to see where you're at. At the very least raise on the flop to find out.

I think I would but in a 250 raise preflop. I wouldn't be thrilled about it but there's 180 in the pot already to win and your hand plays [censored] with that many callers.

Pot the flop and get value from KQ, QJ. If UTG+1 has an overpair then so be it, but c/c misses too much value from Qx.

I wouldn't raise PF, betting the pot seems good here
