First, use the converter. Second, don't include results.As for the hand, fold pre-flop. If you call pre-flop, calling again on the flop's safer. If you decide to raise the flop, you typically need to dump to a re-raise. Since you didn't, shoving the turn's probably fine.

folding AQ to an UTG raiser in full ring is not standard is it ?

I don't know about folding AQo for one raise OTB, but I think I wouldn't raise this flop often, and if I do, I'm folding to a reraise, and if I don't, I am shoving the turn when he checks.

Was somewhat standard for me when I played full ring a lot. The problem is that against a "legit" UTG raise (AA-TT, AQs, AKo), our equity's not so good (31%). Yeah, we'll have position, which is nice. That said, if we hit, we're not likely to make much money against JJ/TT (unless we flop a straight). If we hit our other cards, we're very easily dominated/crushed. Now if we're talking AQs, I give a bit more leeway since there are those added ways to win - not just flopping a flush, but possibly flopping a flush draw we could play aggressively. I wouldn't think twice about folding AJo here...and folding AQo in the SB is certainly preferable. I mean, it's slightly read-based. If you're aware that the guy's raising light from up front or you think you're significantly better than your opponent, feel free to make the call.
