My plan on the flop was to go for a pot-sized or all-in check/raise on the turn depending on the size of the pot.

UTG is a bit of a weirdo. I never really got a good feel for his betting pattern over a couple hours playing with him. He definitely isn't tight, but not a maniac.

It's alright to me. The pot was big enough to get all in on the turn, which is what you wanted.. Although it wasn't you who did it, so you mighta coulda raised on the flop to build the pot and figure out where you stand. Ah well, you got the action you wanted. Hopefully you're good. I mean, unless he's a super tight rock then I'm not folding this. If he has AX/images/graemlins/diamond.gif then you can't really do anything about it.
