I'm folding this preflop but I'm not sure if it's right.

Post-flop looks good, I think a turn bet would be spewing. Bizarre hand.

Fold PF bet the Turn you’re really think all those guys would check an A or Q with that many players in the pot, I highly doubt it, and river line is fine...

UTG+2 MP1 and MP2 will often check a pair to the PFR on the flop so a check doesn't necessarily mean they missed.

The queens would almost definately check the flop especially with the PFRer acting near the end. I also think somebody with AQ or a set might check the flop in hopes of getting more action later. I think betting out on this turn is just acting to get raised normally. I'm kind of surprised everybody says to fold PF with that many people already in the hand. It's 1 SB for the chance to win a LOT more if I hit the flop.

The preflop call is close. I will call here sometimes. I call much more if they are suited. It's not bad with that many people in the pot already.

It's not a coldcall. He was the BB.

You're giving up nothing by folding this one pre-flop.
