Turn: (t68071) K of diamonds (3 players – 2 are all in)

Very interested to see if I should have Iso shoved here and just hope the Blinds dont wake up, or is that to much of a gamble and should I fold?

Will post results if / when needed, Cheers

i play this hand exactly the same way, you cant worry about action behind you when this is totally the correct isolation shove to get heads up with the shorty, your only other option is to flat to make it look like you have a monster and fold when bb ships but than that goes against my never worry about action from players behind theory on iso shipping so i like your play just unlucky imo

Sometimes the blinds are gonna wake up with monsters but nothing you can do about that, except sometimes hit an 8 to make yourself feel better about running into said monster.
