Re: AK hand from last night
My psychic powers tell me that you will say that you were waiting until the turn to raise so that if it's a blank you can face someone with JT or somesuch with two big bets cold and better protect your hand. If so, I say fancy play syndrome. Raise the flop. The button, a tight player who three-bet pre, could easily have KK/QQ/JJ and if you call he is being offered 19:1 which means he will overcall and be right to do so. There is a good chance he folds these hands now if you raise the flop. Don't let him see the turn cheap.
It's a little worrisome that the straightforward player is betting into you on this flop after the preflop action, but that's life.
As a side note, given the player descriptions I don't think capping preflop is automatic, but it's not really a big deal either way, in my opinion.
