Is 99 strong enough to play an $1800 pot 3 ways aipf with this type of dynamic?
I even considered back raising after V2 called V1s 3bet pre, but would my sizing basically have had to been big enough to commit me so that V2 wouldn't try to jam $700 effective overtop?
You can 4-bet to a size that allows you to 4-bet/fold if you're not comfortable stacking off. This is probably near the bottom of the range you take this line with so he's not exploiting you if you take this line.
Your range is still uncapped due to the dynamic with V1, so V2 shouldn't have reason to suspect you are often light and shouldn't be getting way out of line too often.
However I think I'd call it off because it seems unlikely V2 would flat a premium pair, I really don't expect him to jam on you often, though.
