I'm not a 3 bet expert and for the most part believe it is an overrated concept that should basically be ignored full ring $2NL through $25NL. However, just thinking about it out loud, I would think the best spots to 3 bet light would be when:

1) You have position
2) You put your opponent on a steal
3) You put your opponent on a small pocket pair or other hand that can't stand a raise
4) You can isolate
