AK against small stack. Check the flop?

[rwb78]

If small stack calls my flop bet it is pretty much all in I guess by the turn. But I had another player against me so I made the bet.
any opinion on this?

Ya you should check it. The JQ is very likely to hit at least one of them IMO

Both are short, don't think this is a good spot to c-bet. Raise more PF with that many limpers though.

OOP I make $2-$2.5 to go PF...

As played I will not c-bet that flop...
