nope, good hand on all streets. a straight and flush draw will complete one or both about half the time, so pump the pot when you have two opponents, even out of position.

I will sometimes call the raise on the flop to keep the other players in with a very strong draw out of position with no pair outs to worry about cleaning up. This also allows you to get in a checkraise when you hit yout hand on the big money streets. Most of the time, I play it like you did.

I also think the turn might be a good place to try for a checkraise if UTG+2 is reasonably aggressive.
