    1 fold, MP1 calls t50, 2 folds, Hero bets t200, 2 folds, MP1 raises to t750 hero??

    again, my memory not great here. thought this was the hand where the ep limper was bad, it may well be. anyway, just 1 hand before villain had slow played kings. now this happens.
    it could well be that i had him down as not good, hence my raising...

    thats what i would guess. though i threw in a couple donk hands to account for bluff %. A lot of time I see people use momentum from hands like you described with the KK and overplay weaker hands on bluffs to try to control table action. something like trying to manipulate confirmation bias, i think. could be wrong though

    Maybe I'm weak sauce but I'd just limp along here and see if I can hit a set on the flop.

    As played, again maybe I'm weak sauce but unless I've seen opp pull the limp/re-raise trick with wacky hands before I just fold and move on.

    I'm with taipan. 7 handed with big stack 3-betting at me I'd fold my 8s pretty quickly, even with read that he plays strangely.

    i think a smaller iso is better. as played i call but im not sure what's best. this seems like quite awkward spot no matter what you do here.
