Most people do this, it's called a continuation bet - hopefully to win the pot right away.

However, its sucess is heavily dependant upon your position, your read on oponents (will they fold?) and their read on you (do they know you will do this?).

Remember - you only have a weak drawing hand, don't go too far.

Yeah, AK is a fairly weak hand. I normally won't play it. I play only aces and sometimes kings.

You're clearly being sarcastic, which is probably confusing here in the beginner forum. Yes, AK is a very strong hand pre-flop, but if the flop misses you, it can get you in trouble if you play it too strongly. That's what the previous poster was getting at.
