Final Table $11- Isolate?

[DarrenX]

Final 7 out of 3400. Blinds 25,000/50,000 5000 ante.

Hero (3rd of 7, 2.1 million) is utg w/9 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and raises standard 3x to 150,000. I've been fairly active, if anyone is paying attention.

Folds to small blind (2nd of 7, 2.3 million) who smooth-calls. He's been fairly quiet. BB short stack (relatively tight) pushes for his last 285,000. Back to me. Smooth-call or isolate?

If it matters, $6,900 for 1st. Difference between 7th and 6th is $300ish ($1100 to $1400).

yes.

Absolutely isolate.

You should Iso here. I think making it 650k will be enough to make him go away. Besides just calling sets you up for an isolation by SB.
It's also unlikely he c'called OOP with anything that beats you here. Just take his free money and win your coinflip.
