Default Iso Raise Gone Bad

I attempted to ISO-Raise UTG who was playing almost any two cards and was terrible postflop. SB was a tight somewhat decent player but BB was loose as well. As soon as I was 3-bet and the bb cold called I didn't like the hand.

When the pfr bet the flop and there were two callers I decided to fold, if it went bet fold fold I would have called down.

What do you guys think?

Should I just not attempt to iso raise with a weak ace and avoid this spot?

if you are going to fold a flop of A9x, you should just fold pre flop to the 3bet.

this is the worst flop fold I've seen in a long time.

I don't even mind raising the flop, since the two monkeys in the middle are coming along.

Seriously though, horrible horrible flop fold.

And PF is bad as well

I will send you the hand history if you want. This hand happened during a pretty disastrous run. I'm glad that the posts confirm the sick feeling I had when I folded.

I guess I believe you. I just wanted to make one more point to illustrate how bad this flop fold is. Even if you somehow knew the preflop 3bettor had AK, you would still have to call this flop becuz you are getting the proper odds to outdraw that holding.

Thanks ILP. I think I posted it because I thought it was bad but just wanted to be bereducated; I obviously have a lot of studying to do. Hopefully someone else will learn from my mistake too.
