Raise preflop to 300 or so.
You don't want to be playing AK against this many opponents.

I like the check raise the flop allin line.
There is no-way this is not being bet at by one of the million people in the pot.

reraising preflop shortens the field and makes this easier to play oop...if youre going to lead 700, you might as well push as played. c/r also works as youre surely getting someone to bet on this flop in such a big pot, and its gonna be AI also.

On the flop I don't bet as much, probably a bet of around 490-525 to see where its at, we want to control the pot size for this moment.

[censored] turn, I probably fire off another 3/4 pot sized bet on a "safe" turn card fwiw.
