This situation comes up a lot and I really think its a leak in my game. How do you handle hands like this where you hold a PP out of position with one over on the flop. Is it best just to check/fold even though AK is a real possibilty for villain?

Im betting both of those flops because Id be betting them with whiffed overs or if I hit them. Again, I dont always play any hand a certain way and neither should you, but my standard would be to cbet both flops whether I hit or not.
