Re: AKo- big pot.
I'm gonna be the guy that starts problems and say I like a flop lead here. This seems to me like the sort of situation where we can't quite bet for value (although it's close with 7ish outs), but we gain the possbility of folding out reverse-dominating hands, or backdoor straights that might muck up our pair outs.
Because of all of our outs, we only lose a fraction of a bet in value if we lead, but we stand to increase our equity in a large pot.
And there's the usual metagame reasons, if you only bet with good hands people will know that in the future blah, blah, blah.
Isn't there a hand in SSHE very similar to this where NPA advocates leading the flop? It was one of the first flop hand quizzes IIRC?
