Hello. The villian is a fish guy who like to see a lot of flops.
My question is: its worth to isolate here? villian will call me with call of trash but we are flipping most of time. I like the isolate here but wondering if its the best way to play this hand

In this spot I usually jam, but calling and trying to check it down isn't terrible.

I think shove is the clear best play here. He can't really have 99+ and flat, and you rep a range that crushes 77-88 here. He can't really call off with overs aside from AK/AQ either, which is fine for us.

normally randoms will rarely have AK JJ+ here cause they wouldn't flat with it pre. so most randoms will have a range that only has 77-TT ahead of us, and even then 99 and especially TT will be 3betted pre a fair amount (I guess, even from a loose passive random). so we're looking at a capped range that we're slightly ahead of pre, and we play pretty straight forward post, leading to all sorts of equities being realised by villain when we check down boards. shoving pre makes villain fold a lot of two overs and he rarely has a hand that dominates us, so we shove now imo.

edit: should've just +1ed the comment above mine

Thanks for all your replies.... Thats my thought process... I shoved away and i lost but was in great shape... 66 vs ak vs aq( The guy who covered me)
