AK flops top pair 200bb deep

Villain is 26/13/3
I'm running 22/17/2 and have raised the previous 3 hands due to having good cards

I'm kinda lost with this one, should I be reraising him on the flop? I can't really let him have the lead can I?

he thought for a very long time before calling the 32.. used most of his time bank

This is a [censored] spot,
After he calls the 30 and the spade comes off I think id normally shut down. he doesnt call 30 w/KQ does he? and the flush has now hit so im thinking shut down.

wouldn't people that are willing to raise with the draw, usually just going to be shoving over my reraise on the flop?

Ye thats true but then the best hand you beat is KQ right? and i really dont see him calling 30 on the flop.

I usually don't 3bet this flop, but that could be a leak of mine as I usually only 3bet the flop with 2pair+ or a nice draw.

We've got into a tough spot, we get minraised on the flop which is a strange line to take if villan had a set so im not to concerned about a set.

Mainly combo draws or just FD. We're also deep, so my main thought at the start of the hand would be to avoid a very large pot.

So i'd rather call the flop, then a bad card hits on the turn so unfortuantly ive not charged villan very much to hit the flush however now i dont feel so pot commited.

I think you should give up, i dont think your image will of skewed villans play so much that he has anything less than KQ here.

The draw has completed,if you bet now you cant really fold... can we? Expensive if we do, and what if we then get called?

I don't like the 3 bet because it puts you in a really awkward situation when he calls and this happens.
I call the min raise and on the turn bet out if a non spade hits and on this particular turn judge by size of bet, timing etc but veering towards calling turn and folding to a river bet.

As played ugh I am not sure I think c/f is best but man it feels so weak.
