Re: Should I have checked the turn?

It must be because most normal UTG raising hands beat or dominate mine. Let's see there's AA, AK, AQ, KK, QQ, JJ, TT... that's probably what I'm looking at the vast majority of the time. I guess I'm only good if they are rasing AJ or KQ which isn't that often.

This is right. You want them to have AJ/KQ but if their range of UTG raises is as wide as you describe, which is reasonable to assume, you're likely dominated. You're in terrible shape against AA/KK/QQ/AK.

Wow I really am a dog here, not sure why I thought raising was a good idea. Would a three-bet with AKo be correct here? Would the three-bet be correct if the raiser was in middle to late position position?

Unless you know that UTG will only raise AA/KK there, I would 3-bet AKo all the live-long day.
