Default [100nl] Set mining question with odd stacks scenario

I have been running into some odd set-mining scenarios, where someone with 50BB raises EP, one caller with full stack, and then it folds to me. Against two full stacks I would usually raise, but with short stacks involved in these situations it gets muddled for me. Here is a more extreme example that just happened, what pairs would you call/raise/pitch here, and generally his it best to err on the side of folding in such spots?

Full Tilt Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $1 BB (8 handed) Hand History converter Courtesy of PokerZion.com

SB ($96)
BB ($17)
UTG ($17)
UTG+1 ($108.60)
MP1 ($92.20)
MP2 ($97)
CO ($119.70)
Hero ($108.55)

Preflop: Hero is Button with 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to $3</font>, UTG+1 calls $3, <font color="#666666">5 folds, Hero?</font>.

If UTG+1 is bad it's a pretty easy call IMO.

USUALLY a call for me, you've got position post flop. Only time I'll consider folding is if UTG+1 is a nit or there has been a lot of 3-betting behind me.

Your set mining, vs. one raise you can call regardless of the amount of callers. You can look to raise if your looking to pick up the pot, but id rather hit a set and stack em.

i fold here. he has to have at LEAST a 30 stack for me to consider calling. 40 is preferable. when we miss and he shoves we fold almost always so it's just not worth it.

Fold. His stack is too small to set mine.
