Re: How should I have played this differently?

I would fold the flop. Everything else looks ok.

I think hero gives up too much folding the flop. There are 7SB's in the pot and UTG did not raise preflop, so while he could have a King he could also very likely have an 8 with a lower kicker.

If opponent is a dope, he could have limped some bad 8 UTG, yes. If I am UTG, I have a small pocket pair a very high percentage of the time, and something like KJs the rest of the time, so hero can indeed be ahead here. I don't think I fold the flop here either.
