Capping the flop is cool, but it might be better to call the 3-bet and raise the turn.

I will disagree with your opinion here, for the following reasons:

1) We have a player on an obvious draw (SB) trapped between us and the UTG+1 player who has represented a big pair and is not letting his hand go. Charging the draw is more important than slowplaying.

2) We have a vulnerable hand. Any Club (11), Ace (3), King (3), Queen (3), Nine (3), or Four(3) are cards that can slowus down on the turn. That's 26 cards. There is no point in slowing down to raise the turn when there's a 50% chance we will have to slowdown ourselves (which is incidentally what happened).

we have huge implied odds on future bets from UTG+1, we might as well try as hard as we can to pump the pot while we are still a favorite over the two opponents. too often we will will not be able to C/R the turn because of a scare card.
