After the hand is over I feel like an idiot for playing the hand, having lost many bets.

Your brain/emotion is getting in the way here. There is some good reading somewhere on loss-aversion maybe someone can provide a link again.

Capping preflop with AK multi-way is fine. You will win more than your share. This does not mean you will win more than half though. Even if you win 30% you should be able to pull a long-term profit.

One of the difficulties postflop is that when your hand hits it may be more obvious than when others hit. Just all a part of the game. What do your PT numbers show for AK?
