1-3 NLHE. (Kinda plays more like 2-5, as the standard preflop raise has
been $15-$20, and most stack sizes are between $300 and $1000.)
I have AhQh in 2nd position. UTG folds. I raise to $15. 4th position
calls. 7th position calls. Button calls. SB calls. BB calls. Pot $90.
Flop Qc Jd 5c. SB and BB check. I bet $65. 4th position calls
quickly, as does button. All others fold. Pot $285.
Turn 10s. I'm first to act. I have $147 in front of me. Both other
players have me covered.
What do you do now? (Or, what do you do differently than what I have
done so far?)

One question before I answer - based on previous play did you expect to
get a whole bunch of callers?

I expected 3 callers at the absolute max, and probably 2 callers was
most likely. To have 5 callers was a big surprise.

"But you did not expect a fold around to the blinds?"
I took more from this single sentence in your response than from your
article. I think maybe the lesson here is to dump A-Q preflop from the
first 3 positions in this kind of game, and to be cautious about playing
out of position in general, regardless of your holding. That way you
don't have to make decisions like this in big pots when first to act.
The article really had nothing to do with my aforementioned situation.
I raised with the A-Q; I didn't call an early position raise with it.
Still a good article, but I already knew the info and the knowledge in
it.
Nevertheless, I probably shouldn't raise A-Q that close to UTG in that
kind of a cash game. Dump it and wait for the next hand. Or maybe limp
and home to play a cheap pot and flop two pair or better.
By the way, I shoved, and was called by a set of 5s by the player on my
left, and also called by some nut who didn't show. River did not bail
me out.

Wow! 6 in preflop for an EP raise? You must have a TAG image if they
want to take a shot at hitting the flop and stacking you knowing they can
either bully you off a big hand or flop big and stack your big hand.

I do not like the 65.00 bet. I bet 100.00 or fold to a bet and possibly
come over the top of a weak raise after my check.

I dunno?
You have 80.00 in so you started the hand short stacked with about 230.00.
You said the stacks were ranging from 300.00 to 1000.00. I think I raise
more preflop and or push/check raise or check fold the flop-depending. It
is VERY draw heavy.
========================================
You must not think me necessarily foolish because I am facetious,
nor will I consider you necessarily wise because you are grave.

The problem with trapping is that you may very well give two players
free draws. Can't be having that...gotta bet.

if you have reason to believe that eirther of your opponents would have
reraised with AK , then you bet and hope not to get called or you bet and
hope the sucker with KQ calls you , and misses on the end

Interesting. I saw it as much more of a trap situation where you could get a
weaker hand to make a bad bet, meanwhile a bad call all-in is no worse than
a bad bet all-in. I.e., all your money goes in either way, but the chance
you're against something you can beat has gone up.

Check and call for most aggressive opponents. If you do, there's a chance
the opponent is bluffing and therefore a wider range of hands that you can
beat as compared to the hands that can call if you bet all in.
The exception to the rule is if a weak tight player who only bets the nuts
bets all in, you obviously have no choice but fold.
