Default Weird QQ hand

I was really confused by this hand, as I only had minimal reads on both players, and didn't completely figure either out until after this hand. All I really had at this point was UTG was fairly aggressive and really liked his suited aces.

Preflop: Hero is CO with Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP2 calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, UTG calls, MP2 calls.

Flop: (10.50 SB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, MP2 calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, UTG calls, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 3-bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero caps</font>, UTG calls, MP2 calls.

Turn: (11.25 BB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, MP2 calls, Hero calls.

River: (14.25 BB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, MP2 calls, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 17.25 BB

I'm not sure about the turn and river. I wasn't convinced UTG had a high pocket pair, but I was worried he had a higher heart and MP2 had trips, so just calling both streets seemed like the right thing to do.

I play it the same.

UTG could be on a higher PP, or could be on Ax hearts, but that seems less likely given the pre-flop raise. MP2's check-raise smells like trips, but he may be hoping his 6 holds up. I cap the flop for value, but I think it's close. I call the turn, with the small but real chance that my hand is currently good, 2 outs to the near nuts, and 9 very discounted outs to the flush. When the flush hits on river, I might be tempted to raise, but without a good read telling me both are very aggressive, I call.
