I like preflop, pretty standard for me. With 3 limpers I might raise the pot to 5-6x the BB, but as played works too.

It seems as if you put the SB on AK. Which makes sense of course. But if the pot got bigger, would you really be content going to the felt with 2nd pair? For example, if he got some balls and actually bet 700 on the turn, do you call?

If you feel (with reads) that you can keep the pot small against this villian then I like the check/call approach fine. But without reads, and the fact taht MP1 is coming along with a draw (J-Q maybe?) or some overcards makes me want to raise the pot on the flop or fold. So many turn cards would scare me and would make playing the hand much more difficult.

Again, with reads it's all different, but I would generally raise the flop.

After the turn bet, I was pretty sure villain had what I thought he had after the preflop raise, and it wasn't AK.
