Default Unorthodox play?

I think 99% of the time I muck this preflop from the position I'm in, but the table was very loose/passive so I took a shot.

The only significant read is on UTG, who plays any two cards.

How do you guys like this? Should I have been more aggressive on the turn and river, or should I have been worrying about kicker problems?

Party Poker 0.50/1 Hold'em (10 handed)

Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
UTG calls, Hero calls, <font color="666666">1 fold</font>, MP1 calls, <font color="CC3333">MP2 raises</font>, MP3 calls, CO calls, Button calls, <font color="666666">2 folds</font>, UTG calls, Hero calls, MP1 calls.

Flop: (15.50 SB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(7 players)</font>
UTG checks, <font color="CC3333">Hero bets</font>, MP1 folds, <font color="CC3333">MP2 raises</font>, MP3 calls, CO folds, Button folds, <font color="CC3333">UTG 3-bets</font>, <font color="CC3333">Hero caps</font>, MP2 calls, MP3 calls, UTG calls.

Turn: (15.75 BB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(4 players)</font>
<font color="CC3333">UTG bets</font>, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises</font>, MP2 calls, MP3 folds, <font color="CC3333">UTG 3-bets</font>, Hero calls, MP2 calls.

River: (24.75 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(3 players)</font>
<font color="CC3333">UTG bets</font>, Hero calls, MP2 calls.

Final Pot: 27.75 BB
<font color="green">Main Pot: 27.75 BB, between UTG, Hero and MP2.</font>

Could have AK or a pair. Once he 3-bets the turn I slow down like you did.

Maybe kicker problems, maybe against a made boat on the flop. I'd be worried about both when he makes it 3 on the turn. If neither of them has a king or a pair of 8's, then they are more insane than most. Capping every street is definitely taking a gamble, but with two along for the ride, you'd be getting a huge overlay if you had even a 50/50 chance of winning. Worst case is MP2 has a king and UTG has 8s. I don't know ... I think calldown is good.

Nothing unorthodox here, nice hand.
I think UTG had 88 KJ/KQ.
I would not worry about MP2.
