I'm not saying your turn play will never work, but I wouldn't have made it.

Would you have raised if the turn card was a blank?

No, I don't think I would have.
I guess the checkraise does represent a slowplayed monster like TT, and I'll admit that no one has shown consistent interest in the hand. But the board hits the limping zone fairly well. It seems to me that if you're checkraising the turn, you're hoping MP2 is semibluffing with a draw and you can drive the others out and get heads-up.
UTG+2 may have a draw of his own and cold-call with it, though, which would complicate things.
Also, I suspect MP2 has a hand with some showdown value. I know he got checked to, but he is betting into three players who called the flop, after all.
