Preflop: Hero is MP3 with K/images/graemlins/heart.gif, K/images/graemlins/spade.gif.
UTG calls, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 raises</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, UTG calls, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 caps</font>, Hero calls, UTG calls.

UTG+1 is loose/aggressive enough to do this with Jacks, and TT/AK are both possibilites as I had been raising a bit immediately before this hand.

Flop: (13.33 SB) 5/images/graemlins/club.gif, 2/images/graemlins/club.gif, 8/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, UTG folds, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 3-bets</font>, Hero calls.

Turn: (9.66 BB) T/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 bets</font>, Hero calls.

River: (11.66 BB) 2/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, UTG+1 calls.

Final Pot: 15.66 BB

It felt like I should have gotten a raise in there somewhere on an expensive street, the river seemed like the spot least likely to get 3bet by AA. Any thoughts?

I'd either a.) cap the flop or b.) raise the turn, maybe both if he's really LAGgy.

Doesn't 3-betting the turn pretty much cause the weaker hands to slow down and stronger hands to cap?

On the turn you're heads up and UTG+1 has bet. There are probably a ton of hands he'd play this way. Even more so than nomral if he's loose-aggressive. I think it's quite possible you're still ahead on the turn. If you raise, and he 3-bets, *then* I'd be ready to get in line.
