Party $10+1 - Level 1-2, AK in the blind

[Asgrow13]

I'm curious how others play hands like AK, AQs in the blinds during the first level or two of a SNG. Recently I was in a Party $11 sng and got dealt AKs in the big blind on one of the first few hands. 3 limpers and the small blind were in the hand. I'm out of position, so I'm afraid of raising, getting called and then being left with Ace high on the flop and being first to act. Should I check and try to flop top pair and surprise people? Should I make a huge raise to narrow the pot down or win it right there? How would you guys play this?

I dont know if this is correct...but the first two, maybe three levels ill usually just check there.
