0.5/1 88 vs. guy that has lost his mind and a table that knows it

[KeysrSoze]

Assuming most people will fold for 3 cold on your table without premium hands, yeah I'd reraise even from UTG+2. If the table is really loose and 5 or 6 people will come in for two or three bets, I'd play the 8s for set value and just call. The middle ground, where enough people won't fold but enough people won't call, i'd fold the 88.

On the flop the pot is so big I'd just throw bets in to try to win it, hopefully fold CO's possible overcards with a 3 bet, if you're so sure that SB and UTG will bet with air a majority of the time.
