Default To raise or not to raise PF with AKo

I am extremely confused with this issue. This may be a leak, but I am driven by Pot equity to play the hell out of AK. When I see that hand, I rock and roll with it PF. I have read that it is correct to 3-bet and raise with AK because of the edge it has. But I read in HPFAP in the loose games section that you should not always raise with AK and AQ when there are a lot of limpers infront of you. I have focusing on post flop stuff for so long, that I needed to look at some of my PF game, and after looking at some hands, I am seeing AK giving me some trouble.

This is a hand that is indicative of the kind of situation I am unsure of how to handel it. In these loose games should you ever limp with AK? The table here is fairly loose with known Cold callers and plenty of limpers. Postflop these players bet and raise a little bit sometimes with poor hands.

I reverting to check-call on the river a weak play? My read on this player is broad, as I have seen him CC a few times in an hour session. I was thinking KQ, but JT might be an option given his flop call. But you never know at these limits. Pot was big I had a strong hand.
