PF: I'm BB, get AA, utg calls, mp1 calls, button and sb call, I raise to .50 cents, (10max table), utg and mp1 call

FLop: KQJ rainbowa

I bet $1.80, utg pushes for $5, mp1 re pushes for $10 (my stack)

What do you do? Absolutely no reads for any players, including them on me since it's my fist hand.

You are only in for about 2.50 when it comes back to you. Let em go any 2 painted cards has you beat. A 10 is prolly out there. At best you prolly only improve to a split pot if you catch a 10.

Too dangerous flop for you. Most people call pf raise with two face cards. I doubt A 10 would push, maybe 9 10 or a set.

You can only hope for another A or 10 and that's 6 outs for you with 2 more cards to come, about 1/4. And you might be drawing dead, the best you can hope is a split. Bad deal, must not call.

Pretty much the worst flop you could have seen, you're probably up against something like top two and an idiot straight, so you're drawing super-thin.

First hand in you don't know what the standard raise is, but standard repop would be 4 players limped, raise 4 + 1 for each limper. As played it wasn't all bad as you did manage to get it down to 3 handed at least.

On the flop, I wouldn't be adverse to not c-betting. As others have said, too many hands have 2 pair at this point, or a pair plus a draw, or a made straight. If I did bet as you did, I'm gone after that action. Especially with no reads.

raise more preflop yo. you're going to be out of position and there's 4 others in the pot. not many people fold for a few more dimes after they've put in one, and playing a 4-5 way pot out of position with AA sucks, although you were fortunate in a way that only two players called you. i'd make it .80

and yeah, as played fold, even though the 10 is coming ;)

Easy fold here, although folding AA is never fun. This is the worst possible flop for you and the betting action tells you you're beaten.

The fact that you would have bad beat someone does not change the fact you played it correctly. If you hope to bad beat people you will start to play bad. And that's gonna hurt more.
