This is a push. Villian's range is huge here so we're likely ahead.

The SB is irrelevant. If you call he's either folding or pushing and you're calling his push so either option doesn't matter.

Calling gives the BB options to either squeeze (which puts you in a tight spot) or call (thinking you'll likely check it down without a hand). Both situations can be avoided by just ISO pushing.

Ok just checking. That's what I did and the BB called and flipped over AA and took over half my stack. I was pretty sure the play I made was correct, but afterwards (in hind-sight) it seemed as if a call might have been the better play allowing me to fold to a push from one of the blinds. But I guess a call-fold would be a bit spewy.

Thanks guys.

You made the right play, just bad timing. CO should be pushing pretty much ATC. Players behind dont have that many chips, so insta isolate shove.
