The minraise threw me off at the time....if UTG makes it 300 vs 4xx does it make a diff if have no read on bet size?....In retrospekt this flat just seems awful.

Shove all day everyday?

I'd just shove pre, after calling you are going to be getting about 4-1 on any bet postflop, which you're not going to want to fold too. As played, shove the turn, you just picked up a bunch more outs.
