Default I\'m calling down with AK

No reads on villains. I have played for about one orbit. Table seems pretty TAG.

Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (8 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, BB calls, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 caps</font>, Hero calls, BB calls.

Flop: (12.50 SB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 bets</font>, Hero calls, BB calls.

Turn: (7.75 BB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 bets</font>, Hero calls, BB calls.

River: (10.75 BB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 bets</font>, Hero calls, BB calls.

Final Pot: 13.75 BB

Here's what I was thinking during the hand: MP1 capping pf means he has AK or a big pair. If he has TT or AA I'm drawing pretty much dead. If he has AK, JJ or QQ I'm drawing to six clean outs for a win or chop. Villain's flopbet is likely to be the usual autobet against few opponents with unimproved AK. When he popped another one on the turn AK felt less likely, but not out of the question. If he has JJ-QQ I could still get lucky + I picked up the gutshot. As long as the board don't get too scary or BB wakes up I'm just calling this down.

Looking at this hand now, I feel that a better line would have been to 3-bet the flop and fold the turn unimproved.

How terrible was my play (and thinking)?
