AK in 4bet pot with 967 flop AK in 4bet pot with 967 flop

Villain was a 38/26, so when he raises my UTG+1 open I think AK is still well ahead of his range. But how would you play the flop? For my range it's obviously a bad flop, so I was not sure if Cbetting was a good idea. I'd mainly fold out overcards, which I beat, but I just wanted to take the pot away before the board becomes more dangerous with a queen or jack or so.

Do you think this player (given his VPIP/PFR) would have a lot of such overcards in his range? Or would ha mainly have pocket pairs?

Given the villain's stats, this flop is way more likely to have hit his range. Seeing that we did not hit the flop, I'm more inclined to check the flop as well, but I'm definitely not calling his shove.

Having four-bet pre, we have ceded the nut advantage on this board to the villain. If we are c-betting, it would have to be small; and this is the wrong texture flop to be betting small. Just check back.
