Change your screen name. We already have surf (previously known as surfbullet), surfdoc, surfilinni (sp?), and maybe a few others. It will get confusing.

agreed. is there a 4 or 5 bet cap? folding seems bad, I'm most likely reraising/capping here.

Not sure it matters that much without reads. One advantage of capping is that you may get the original raiser to fold. One (two?) advantage(s) of calling is that you disguise your hand a bit and you get to see how the original raiser reacts.

You said the game was weak with a couple of tags and the CO was one of them. When that's the case, the hand values change for the tags when in position against weak openers. They'll 3 bet lighter to isolate.

Not saying that's the case here, but something to be aware of. I think it makes AK a cap here. See what hand the CO has if he goes to showdown because if it's light, something like A9o, you know what he's doing and can adjust accordingly.
