    Default AQ turn brings the flush $6.50

    Not really concerned about PF and flop as I think they were played alright, although feel free to say if you would have played either any different.
    The turn was really weird, and had no clue whether to shove it, fold, or flat call. So as a result i went for call due to the hefty odds.

    I think I just fold the turn. With the limped pot and two callers on the flop you're probably against a made flush or straight. c/c isnt bad mind since your odds are about right, I just choose to conserve some chips.
    Just dipping my toes back in.

    I agree, preflop and the flop are fine. Sometimes I raise preflop to try to get HU but I kick myself when like 3 of them call.

    On the turn, the first call is fine given the odds you are getting but after MP2 check/raises with both you and CO in the hand, I am folding pretty quick.

    Yea, I figured a fold on the turn would of been best seeing as he showed a load of strength. God knows why I called.
    If we assume he has Kx of clubs, and we stack him every time we hit, is it still a fold?

    man I have been working too damn much and my game must be rusty cuz I don't like this pre-flop or on the flop.

    Pre-flop - I think you either have to raise it up or play this hand for two pair or better against 4 players. I do hate it though, at Tai said, when I still get multiple players but I still think you need to try and whittle the field down some.

    As played I would either check this flop or make a larger bet. You aren't going to get a flush draw to lay down his hand with a 2/3 psb and a weaker ace would probably call if you over bet this pot anyway.

    With that said I still say that if you checked pre-flop you need to be playing this hand for two pair or better and a check here is probably the best move.

    On the turn I do agree that folding to the c/r is absolutely the best move.
    Poker is easy, it's winning at poker that's hard.
