I wonder why noone noticed that you should be folding this preflop?

This is an easy pf 3-bet IMO.

I wouldn't call it an easy pf 3-bet.
I'd say it was good, but not for new learners.

I'd three bet here almost always given the reads.

What specifically about the reads makes this automatic for you?

An unknown player has raised from early position. Does the fact that the idiot has already limped in really overcome the fact that you're likely far behind UTG+1's range? I like a 3 bet if perhaps UTG+1 was a solid player who could be trying to isolate the donk, but you have no reason to believe this.

For anyone wondering, SSH says 3 bet only AA-TT and AK from late position, unless four people have entered the pot ahead of you.

I think SSH assumes reasonably legitimate opposition. Your position and MR DONKHEAD's dead money more than make up for any deficit you give away to UTG+1.
