I have stopped trapping with hands that can possibly get beat if i am out of position. When i say possibly i'm talking about 2 pairs, straights and small flushes.

I would say that AK is not strong enough to be slow-playing in this situation.  As Matt674 pointed out it is not that big a favourite over random hands like the one your opponent held.  For this reason I would favour trying to take the blinds with a raise, avoiding the risk of all-in

i'd have raised all in before the flop. at that stage in the game you cant let anyone see a flop cheaply or call after the flop on draws. put the pressure on them big time
