Default AK BB first hand

S+G's are not my game, but I sometimes play them for fun.

Was curious about this one, very first hand of a $10+1:

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t15 (10 handed) converter

MP3 (t800)
CO (t800)
Button (t800)
SB (t800)
Hero (t800)
UTG (t800)
UTG+1 (t800)
UTG+2 (t800)
MP1 (t800)
MP2 (t800)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
UTG calls t15, UTG+1 calls t15, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP2 calls t15, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, SB completes, Hero checks.

<font color="blue">How is the pre-flop check here? I didn't have any reads yet and I felt the strength of my hand would be disguised if I hit the flop, or I could just fold if I missed. Normally I would just make a decent raise and try to pick up the pot right here, but I felt that on the first hand this was worth a try.</font>

Flop: (t75) 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t75</font>, UTG calls t75, UTG+1 folds, MP2 folds, SB folds.

Turn: (t225) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t200</font>, UTG calls t200.

River: (t625) J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

<font color="blue">What should my river action be? We each have t510 left of course.</font>
