I would raise to 75 preflop and play it the same way on the flop most likely.

No point in bluffing with A high this early.

I think there is a pretty decent chance I am a slight favorite here. Notice I also flopped a flush draw.

I bet out the flop, t125 seems right. though, nothing wrong w/ this line IMO.

I don't get it. I'd just lead the flop for a normal bet or push.

Don't listen to all these guys OP, pushign is never an option even o a draw with AK, you have nothing, check and fold, it's the first level you'll be fine

I like your play a lot. You raised allin with what is almost certainly the best hand with a lot of fold equity.

pc,

understandable if you are personally reluctant to check/push....but check/fold? at a minimum, check/callling t80 given almost 5-1must be an option for you.
