Stack sizes are approximate, roughly from what I remember.

Pre-flop: (pot: 2 BB) Hero has QQ

Hero raises to 4 BB, fold, fold, call, call, call, call, call, call.

Flop: (pot: 28BB) JT8

Didn't want to put myself in a difficult spot here. This flop hits a lot of calling ranges. Seven players to the flop, somebody is bound to have a piece of it. Plan on C/C. It checks around.

Turn: (pot: 28BB) J

The second J doesn't make things easier, slightly less probably that someone has a J. Still 6 players behind me to act, out of position. I do pick up the Q-high flush draw, higher flush draw out there is certainly possible. Same plan, plan on check-calling. It checks around.

River: (pot: 28BB): 6

Nobody looked too interested when checking the T. Not likely a J or nut flush draw would have checked it here. Same for JT or other full houses ... probably would have bet for value with the draws out there.

Hero bets 20BB. Basically for value, and if someone checked the nuts or nut flush draw to the river I'll find out soon.

Even though this is limped pot I do like a bet on the flop. We block Q9 to the high end of the straight and really only have to worry about facing the nuts against 79. Sure there are two pair hands that beat us but I don't think that is incredibly common. Plus we don't have to bet a ton here to potentially win the pot outright. If we get a call/calls then I would reevaluate on the turn.

Raise bigger pre especially in early position. This will eliminate some of that call/call/call BS. Bet flop.

Very WP. Probably a little smaller on river, like 18bb. Rep AK and get called light

limp / 3bet pre or raise bigger...
bet the flop. there is so much worse that will call...
after checking flop you really need to bet that turn. any pair will call you now
you really don't want to go on a flop like that in a check call mode... once one of them start betting you really don't know where you are standing
bet yourself and they will usually call you with worse or raise you with better

I don't understand how you picked up a Queen high flush draw on the turn with only one heart.

Quite right, 8 should be 8.
