Isn't sb nemesis 31/13/3.5 ?

precisely why I want to iso to get the friggin villain out who according to

Bona can get away from a bad hand. I think calling 2 preflop is something he doesn't like doing.

I definitely want iso potential against sb here. I 3 bet preflop. Changes everything.

I doubt that you can successfully isolate sb here. At least one of the limpers is coming along, with a good chance both call.

Fwiw, if I thought it would work, I'd be 3betting here, too.

I doubt it too, but playing it passively in this situation is more likely to reduce the size of the pot if I hit my set and also mean that I have to fold on the flop to a miss.

I prefer having some room postflop by 3 betting against these opponents. If it doesn't iso I don't mind.

Having a read on the opponents makes all the difference here. I get a lot more information to work with by 3 betting than I do calling.

Raising for information is not correct but a failed isolation raise is not a bad thing when you get information from it's failure.
