AKs from cutoff

Was the cap preflop an okay play to try and take control of the hand? From late position I cap AK fairly often, but the 3 bet from the small blind sort of worried me. After that I think it played out well. Results added for comedic value.

i cap it usually, i think the rest is fine too

Fine. Standard. No need to raise the flop here unless you have a particular reason to believe villains are passive and you can almost always get the free river card.

Flop raise ok, if UTG wasn't there, but no good with him.
