Overboard with AK?

Both opponents are pretty loose. What line do you take?

I probably check/call, check/fold, or check/push the turn depending on what villains do after I check.

My ultimate goal would be to see a free river. Sure, it gives them a free card, but you aren't entirely confident in your hand and it controls the size of the pot.

Mostly checkfold the turn though. You are up against not one, but TWO limpcallers. This basically means you can't rely on BOTH of them having weaker aces. Someone here has a set a lot. On the other hand someone here has a pair+flushdraw here a lot. I would bet money that someone has a pair+flushdraw and the other has a set.

I am curious to see the other responses, but I checkfold this turn.

I wouldn't necessarily check-fold the turn but I'd definitely check and see what happens. If the button makes a big bet and UTG calls all-in it's pretty hard to see you being ahead here.
