No way.. you have the 2nd nut frush draw. Folding the turn would be really bad.

I don't think the issue is whether to fold the turn or not, it is whether to take the free card or not. Normally, I would bet it headsup, but the board is kinda scary to a AQo hand.

I think the free card might have been a better option there but not taking it, calling for the river is correct?

I have this problem with KQo.

I would recommend focussing on the nature of the players left in the hand....calling stations, or solid. If they are solid, you might be able to induce a fold. Calling stations will call you down with A5...and hit a 5--lol.

Also, if you are betting out, you are probably out of position to begin with--so be careful.

Bad run of cards. Few players play poorly enough to make AQo into a long-term loser. I've had runs of thousands of hands where KK is a net loser and it certainly is not the hand nor my play of it.

Funny you should say that... over 3K hands AA is a net loser too, just not near as bad as AQo. I just think the poker gods decided to bend me over recently.
