i want to chime in and say i don't think it makes a big difference whether you raise the flop or turn here. also, if the hand played out like this:

UTG bets, MP calls, Hero calls.

UTG bets, MP calls, Hero raises, UTG cals, MP calls.

there would be not be such strong comments about the flop play.

but what about when he has KK/QQ and 3 bets the flop? then you can get turn raise in without missing flop bets. also if he has AK, it might check to you on the turn. i think raising the flop is more profitable.

edit: i apologize to OP for bringing the flop play up again. just saw that you wanted to forget about that for now.
