I used to think that giving free cards was a major pitfall, but not so much anymore. Generally, if a bet is solely to protect myself from 6 outs, I think it is a bad bet. Certainly I'm not saying that checking with AK on a T44 rainbow flop to be an automatic play against 100% of opponents, but just automatically doing it because you raised preflop seems foolish to me.
Like, people apply this concept on the turn when they check behind with weak made one pair hands, but they don't do it on the flop because everyone loves cbetting, even if it will lead to worse decisions for more money than if they didn't.
