so wouldn't raise AK here, then?

Maybe suited. I seriously doubt it, though.

any chance this is a 44 or a 33 instead of the king?

It was definitely on my mind at the time. Looking back, however, his nonchalant flop call and trembling turn check raise seems to almost certainly point to the fourth king, although that did not seem as clear at the time.
One thing that has really hindered my progress at live NL is the emotional factor resulting from the escalation of bets. I had not played live in almost a year up until late June. And I had never played live NL.
As a result of this, my thinking on some of the trickier decisions has been muddled by trying to appear emotionally disconnected, keeping my breathing steady etc... Had my mind been more clear, I likely would have significantly reduced the possibility of 33 or 44.
