Default Nice flop- apparently im not good???

So UTG+1's weak limp RR doesnt really have me worried, as he has been splashing around like this for the past half hour. What really confuses me is the BB raise on the flop...then an insta cold call from UTG+1. I have a hard time thinking im not good here...the only hand im worried about besides the obvious flush draw is a set of threes. Curious to see what line others take from here.

Ultimate Bet
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t30./t60.
9 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: t4590
UTG+1: t13040
MP1: t5115
MP2: t1915
MP3: t2380
CO: t525
Button: t1135
Hero: t3960
BB: t7040

Pre-flop: (9 players) Hero is SB with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
UTG folds, UTG+1 calls t60 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t90)</font>, MP1 calls t60 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t150)</font>, 4 folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to t380</font>, BB calls t320 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t530)</font>, <font color="#cc0000">UTG+1 raises to t760</font>, MP1 folds, Hero calls t380 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t1490)</font>, BB calls t380 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t1870)</font>.

Flop: K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (t2340, 3 players)
<font color="#cc0000">Hero bets t500</font>, <font color="#cc0000">BB raises to t3660</font>, UTG+1 calls t3660 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t6500)</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero ?????

UTG limp/min-raise flat call A high flop doesn't worry you in the slightest?

Whatever the reads, I've never seen this line mean anything other than what is now a big set, especially after BB overbet raises the pot.

this is an easy shove PF, as played postflop why weak lead, you sound scared in the OP about FDs etc so you must be a weaktight player hence the PF flat call because AK is a drawing hand NOT. Your weak lead prices FDs in and sometimes people may even peel gutshots closing the action. So you end up hating some turn cards. I check shove here as I would with any fd and many other hands. But, I would never get to this spot Postflop.
