I think this is backwards. The guy is playing scared, and he still raised UTG. He's more likely than normal to have a big pair here. I don't like my 88 all that much, and even if I did, there is a cold-caller in between us.

I don't think this is going to win unimproved very often. I want to play this for 2-bets, not 3 or 4.

I like the idea of the guy being out of his comfort zone and 3 betting him in this spot, especially with so many behind that might call anyway and possibly getting a nice overlay.
