On the isolating issue I would guess nearly any pro player in this exact situation would never raise.
There was absolutely no reason for isolating the short stack being as they didn't even have enough to cover the current blind. There was really little advantage in taking rivers out for baldeagle(chip count before the hand started w/ 250-500 blinds and(50?) ante" baldeagle 12000ish, rrivers 2000ish, and shorty 260.) rrivers only has 4 BBs. I wasn't actually watching just got this info from the thread. I saw GRN_DZEZ go out and quit paying attention, so the blinds may have been bigger. Point is even if rrivers win the pot and even doubles up(both players should known that the other players is not bluffing in this situation), baldeagle still has him 2-1 in chips but more likely they check it down and baldeagle is ahead 3-1 and baldeagle still moved up, because when one player is eliminated those remaining all move up. This is pretty common strategy in tournament poker. Rare is the situation when you want to isolate the short stack, unless of course you are trying to help them win.

Just got home. Had my laptop up there but even though I could sign into the mainpage it wouldn't let me login to the Forum.
Nice, hoping for some cards this time!
