    Raise more pre. The c-bet, turn shutdown does scream miss though.

    Nothing really wrong with the way you played it. I don't know why you'd need to raise more pre with AK, 4xbb is fine. I probably bet less on the flop, 400 should get you all the info you need, but once he calls your pot size flop bet I think you can assume he's not folding the turn or river so your check/fold is fine.

    I like your bet pre-flop and the flop. The turn you could have fired again but unless you have a decent read on your player I wouldn't recomend you do it every single time. It should be a trick in your arsenal of plays but you don't want to two barrel every single time....more like you do it maybe 20% of the time depending on player, chip stack and board. Personally on this board I wouldn't have fired on the turn and with 3 spades out there I would not have fired on the river.
