Don't 3bet the turn. There is no reason to because you are in a giant pot and that raise indicates that you may very well not have the best hand, but you would like to see a showdown in the huge pot. You are not going to move anyone off of a king and everyone else is drawing to only a few outs if you are ahead. You aren't raising to protect, you are raising for value, if anything, but I don't think you have enough of an edge to 3bet. Just call that raise and check/call the river.

Well, I'd say the guys were way too passive with their trip kings. Besides that, I think your play was absolutely fine.

The turn 3-bet is pretty bad against most players (because you slow down a weaker king). Don't include results.

When UTG+2 wakes up and raises you when the turn comes blank, you have to figure he is slow-playing a K (and perhaps watching for the non-flush turn.) I'm not saying you should fold, but probably just call and then check/call the river. saves one BB, which isn't much but...
