Is that enough for you?
That might be. But as others have said, this hand is not a good example of exploitative play. Its a standard cooler both preflop and postflop, and the way, you played it, loses you a lot of value in the long run. So you are "exploiting" yourself with this kind of line, not the opponent. If you 4-bet preflop, AK is not going to fold. He is either going to call in position or 5-bet. In which case you can get it all-in as a 70% favourite. So slowplaying did not win you anything extra against his actual holding. And most of the time he miss the flop and dont put in a lot of chips postflop. Maybe you get a C-bet out of him, but then thats it. Or flop comes AXY, where XY is not a K, and then he has outdrawn you.
