Snakes on a Plane

they might, there is certainly a percentage of time when the AK will raise. i dont know what percentage i would go with on that, it depends on alot of factors of course.

if AK raises it allows the coldcaller to correctly fold his hand when its incorrect to pay 2 bets. by checkraising he is forced to pay those 2 bets so you make him make the mistake rather than allowing to escape it.

you said that you like taking a donk/call, donk/call, checkfold line which seems reasonable if you do decide to donk the flop, but notice that you ended up paying alot of bets to finally arrive at the conclusion that your hand isnt good. donking didnt net you any more value and it didnt save you any bets.
