standard... maybe call the 3-bet on the flop

The Hip:

I think you lost more than you needed to here.

Most often I think a call, call, call line is best (and bet if checked). Sometimes I would consider calling the flop and raising the turn (folding to a 3-bet) and then taking the free showdown. But honestly, the pot is pretty small, so if he is on AK, you really do not mind him continuing to bet it.

What kind of player is MP1?

Unless he is unusually LAG I would call the whole way here and bet if checked to.

[Luke]

Like the others are saying, just call down here and bet if checked to.

Let AK bluff away winning you the most there and losing the least to AA and KK.

I would just call 3 bet on flop, at this point he could have 5 posibilities that could let him cap Preflop, and 3 bet on flop, Unless hes a lag?

AKs (clubs)
AA
KK
QQ or JJ

I personally prefer calling the three bet on the flop, and raising again on the turn. When you get three bet on the turn you can safely fold. Unless your opponent here is extremely aggro (able to 3 bet turn here with AK clubs which is rare enough that you should have noted it), this play has the most upside.
