Tourney is the SSMTT tourney from saturday. I'd like opinions on preflop and the flop for this hand, as when the shorty goes in i'm not as sure how to play it. Should I isolate preflop? I chose not to b/c I didn't want to be called and then have to play AQs oop in a big pot. On the flop, should I semi-bluff like I did when the shorty is allin so I'm not guaranteed to win the pot even if UTG folds?

PS: RevPhong, you wanted me to post the hand early on where I raised, you reraised, and I pushed, I had KK that hand so I don't see much value in posting the hand, but just thought i'd let you know since you wanted to.
