You didn't mention anything about the table conditions (generally loose/passive?), but this is a pretty standard preflop fold vs. an UTG raise when it's folded to you in MP3. You need a large field to shoot for your set when there's a raise...or a read that the PFR will overplay his whatever it is very badly postflop when you do catch.

You have to raise the flop. You're not getting rid of a flush draw, obviously, but you can make it incorrect for someone holding a 2 or 5 to call. And, of course, you don't mind the flush draws calling because you're going to win the pot more often than they are.

I agree with all of this.
