Looking at the river is hindsight. That Q doesn't make the fold any better or worse, you have to work with the information you have at the time.
With a raise and a reraise, and without a read on them, I'd need atleast AK to call. I dont know what these people are doing, but you're better off getting out IMHO

Oops, forgot to put those in. UTG was a maniac...something like 40/15. MP2 is a regular TAgg though who usually seems to be winning when I see him around.

Tough spot, MP2's line could easily be a pair as he clearly wants to shut you out of the pot. Looks like KT to me.

Raise preflop. KT and KJ get a little less feisty on a K high flop then.
Edit: To actually answer your question, I don't fold the turn nor the river in this hand.

Sounds like a great reason NOT to raise this pre-flop to me...

That sounds like great reason not to raise aces preflop too, but that doesn't make it a good idea.

AA has a big pre-flop edge. KQo doesn't.

So you'd limp it from the button in this situation? That doesn't sound like the Fnord we know and love.

Fnord only raises in shorthanded pots where he has a postflop edge against his opponents. with 6 players comin in for a ride the skill factor no longer applies and it's just all cards now (well minimal skill i should say).

I'm not raising this preflop.
To add a little - not only do you NOT have much equity edge with KQo, but you create a larger pot for people to correctly draw to the river. Keep the pot smaller and outplay them postflop.
