Default When do you raise the flop?

Assume you have AKs and you raise preflop. With a completely blank board, what situations do you bet the flop?

1. 2 opponents, you have the button
2. 4 opponents, you have the button
3. 2 opponents, you are first to act
4. 3 opponents, one left to act after you

I know there are no hard rules, but I'm curious as to what most (good) players would do. Does a mildly coordinated board change anything?

Thanks,
Spicymoose

The flop texture and the quality of opponents are just as important.

You just sat down at a typical 2/4 Party game, no reads. Flop comes 2h, 5d, Jc.

Take this with a shaker of salt...

1) Bet
2) Bet
3) Bet
4) Bet

Read the overcards section of small stakes hold'em and do a search it's been discussed zillions of times and there are some essays and such also written if you dig deep enough
