Default 10/25 AK hand. I don\'t like the way I played it.

Ultimate Bet No-Limit Hold'em, $25 BB (6 handed) converter

MP ($3033)
Hero ($2814)
Button ($1368)
SB ($1584)
BB ($3093.50)
UTG ($4081)

Preflop: Hero is CO with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
UTG folds, MP raises to $85, Hero raises to $225, Button folds, SB folds, BB folds, MP calls $140.

Flop: ($485) T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(2 players)</font>
MP checks, Hero bets $350, MP raises to $1000, Hero goes all-in for $2589.

I'm thinking I should have called his flop raise, and gotten my chips all-in on the turn regardless of the turn card. That way I don't give him a good chance to fold a worse hand. I still lose the full amount when I'm behind in both scenarios. Is it possible to find a fold here? The only advantage I see to going all-in on the flop is that he might fold his AK, but I'm not sure how likely that is.
