Correct my problems with 88-TT

[Christian_Peters]

Here's the deal. I suck with these hands. Here's how I've been playing them.
In a typical tight/aggressive .5/1 PS table - with about 3 on average seeing the flop and 90% of pots are raised PF:

If there is a raise in front of me, I prefer to 3-bet with these hands. I reason that they become much easier to play Post Flop if you 3-bet them PF. So, here's how I handle them:

If there's a raise in front of me from any non-rock player, I will 3-bet them. Typically, it's folded around to the player I have isolated.

If he caps, I interpret that as him having a bigger pocket pair 90% of the time (But he will occassionally do this with AKo or AKs). So, if he caps I feel I am drawing to two outs.

If he caps PF and then leads the flop, I'm done with the hand. Is this correct? Should I be calling one here and then folding the turn UI? How about a R/F? A R/F makes some sense to me because if you're just called, you will likely be able to get the free card. And if he caps the flop, you know you are toast.

How about if the only broadway overcard is the A? You can be reasonably sure that he is scared of the A - he will have JJ-KK more often than he will have AA. And anyone who caps PF will auto bet the flop, so does a raise make sense here? You will probably get two cards for the price of 1BB - then if we don't spike one of our 2 outs, we will have to fold to his River bet because we are beat too often to make calling profitable.

How about CC PF with 88-TT? Seems stupid to me because you've invested 1BB to spike your set when you probably won't get paid that we'll anyway - because the hand will probably be 4 way at most. And I can just imagine Sklansky smacking me upside the head after I CC with one of these medium pairs.

Maybe I just need to be folding 88-99 to a raise more often than I am. And maybe until I get better at playing TT postflop, I need to be folding it as well in most circumstances.

If anyone has any suggestions, I'm all ears. I think misplaying these more often than any other holding. Seasoned advice is badly needed.
