Default ($11) AKs L1 multiway, TPTK checkraised

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t15 (9 handed) converter

UTG (t990)
UTG+1 (t770)
Hero (t760)
MP2 (t760)
MP3 (t950)
CO (t640)
Button (t1885)
SB (t650)
BB (t595)

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t70</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, CO calls t70, Button calls t70, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, BB calls t55.

Flop: (t290) 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t250</font>, CO folds, Button folds, BB goes allin for 525, <font color="#CC3333">Hero ???</font>

The converter didn't like this hand very much at all.

What's the play here? I'm getting like 4:1 on the call and I'm sure I'm seeing lower aces and assorted crap enough to call it profitably, but what really makes this hand bad(to me) is the size of the pot on the flop, and I don't like my line.

Anyway, this situation happens to me fairly often, so my question is more about general principles than this specific hand. Huge multiway pots means no opportunity for error as a PSB is half my stack. Should I be trying to limp with AKs in L1? I limp the pot is only t60 4way, so I can get away from this hand if I'm beat.
