    cocolaja: As Kh
    JFF666: -- --
    zburt: -- --
    coolbreezehb: -- --
    petum: -- --
    bigbruin: -- --
    wolfram: -- --
    11224: -- --
    badwing: -- --

    Pre-flop:
    petum folds. bigbruin folds.
    wolfram raises to 250.
    11224 goes all-in for 210.
    badwing folds.
    cocolaja goes all-in for 1440.
    JFF666 goes all-in for 775.
    zburt folds. coolbreezehb folds. wolfram
    folds. cocolaja is returned 665 (uncalled).

    my read on wolfram is he is loose aggressive but does not like to get involve allin so early in the tourney... I know JFF666 is the fish and did not think he would've called... and 11224 is desperate and been pushing for the past few hands... did I make the correct move in trying to isolate 11224?

    I don't know what the buyin is, but villain raised over 8xBB in this hand. What does that mean here?

    If the short stack were the first one in the pot an isolation move may work.

    However since the original re-raiser is still in the pot and may end up pushing (especially if he is loose and aggressive) with a weak holding like mid pair (I see this all the time in low to mid buy in SNG's) are you still comfortable being in the hand?

    Personally, with AK0 if it is early in the tournament I like to get into a pot as cheaply as possible while limiting the field to 1-3 players.
    Poker is easy, it's winning at poker that's hard.

    You're too deep to make this move.
