id have gone for a c/r on the flop. many higher limit players will stay aggressive after the flop if checked to...you bet, his raise, then youre raise isnt getting anyone out really. especially the draws. though your 3 bet does charge them pretty good. betting out after raising preflop, it's most likely you have an A than a draw. LP could have a draw also...

"I consider folding to a possible AK/AA from the LP, but the pots getting too big"

if youre read were really these hands, why go this far with a dominated hand? ok...your read wasnt this strong...but again, with a flush draw on board, youre not getting it HU.

good turn bet...you may have gained much needed info there...your hand may be good...

they guy may have slowed down with AK...doubt it though....i also doubt hed also play AA this way on the turn. especially with the blank hitting...BUT he may have KK or AQ or a lesser kicker....but with a flush draw. or maybe just a flush draw only...which is very possible...a suited connecting, nut flush draw...

now to the results...
