    I'm no expert but i'd have played that exactly the same up until the river. I'd have folded to the all in.

    id have check shoved the flop myself. 2 overs + gutshot+NFD = simple all in for me.

    It's the 5th hand of a deepstack, so with AQ i would have folded pre after the 3-bet from "s". I know you're getting 4/1 from the pot odds to call, but at the end of the day its AQ out of position against the re-raiser.

    On the turn, you are facing a bet then an all-in. You have to figure that at least one of these players is beating us, with either the flopped flush or better straight. Yes you have the redraw to the better flush but you have 4380 chips left (219BB's). Therefore, I think you can fold on the turn.

    I would call as Ive only wasted 3 and a half minutes of my time playing 5 hands, and I don't mind a gamble.
