When you put in a raise, first you technically "call" the last bet, which is 22. Once you "call" it, the pot is 22+22+38 = 82. So a "pot sized raise" means you "call" the last bet (22) and raise by the pot size (82), for a total raise of 104.
The shortcut is to take the last bet made by any villain, multiply that by 3, and then add the all the other chips in the pot prior to the last bet before you.
So again, the last bet is 22, you multiply that by 3 = 66. Then you add the pot prior to the last bet, which is 38. So a pot sized raise = a raise to 66+38 = 104.
