Probably. A flop like that, with that many people in.. you gotta figure someone's got you beat. Just check and fold on the flop.. it's a small pot, so you're not losing much. If it's checked to the turn and it's a blank, bet here.

As soon as you're called on the flop, go to check/fold. If there was only one oppo, I might fire a second barrel on the turn; but betting the river is just throwing away money.

Also, wtf are you doing limping AJ utg? It's a horrible hand to have in the most difficult of positions. I'd have to either state my case pre-flop or dump it, and even if I did limp, I'd know that I really wanted 2 pair, a jack-high flop or multiple draws on the flop to continue with it.

I think with this many to the flop I just check/fold.

I like the preflop by the way.
