Early in day 2 of a $100 accumulator event ($36k prize pool, paying top 18), about 45 players remaining.

Blinds are 1000/2000/300

Villian1 (350k stack) limps - as it's early I don't have a solid read on him yet, but seems like a strong player
Villian2 (60k stack) limps - weak, loose player
SB limps
Hero in the BB (300k stack) checks with 6c 2h

Flop (10100): 10s 6d 2s

Villian1 raises to 4500
Villian2 shoves for his remaining stack
SB Folds
Hero shoves trying to isolate the smaller stack
Villian1 tanks for about 10 minutes then makes the call with Ac Ad
Villian2 turns over 7h 6s

Spoiler:

Turn 4h
River 4d
Hero eliminated

I was recently on the other side of this hand with AA, the other guy flopped two pair and knocked me out -- board did not pair for me. It's the right play here with two pair on that board. You have the set of 2s and 6s blocked and it's hard to think that 10-10 would limp here, so I'd have to think it's just about 100% that you are ahead when you flip over. Of course, your small pairs are subject to being counterfeited sometimes, but against the 60K stack you're happy to get it in, and unless villain 1 limped with a monster (like here) he's folding most of the time and even if you get the call you're still ahead. I'd play it the same way. (I've been told I'm a donk, though, so perhaps others will think differently.)

Yeah, I feel like I played it right and would probably make the same play again.
Just wanted to get other opinions as every player has a different opinion lol.
IMO I think calling here with Aces is a bad play, he said he put me on A 10 but there is no way I'm reshoving with A10 with the opportunity to knock someone out.

What's the question? My only suggestion is personally I wouldn't shove to iso, it's completely unnecessary given how huge V2's shove is and occasionally you will run face first into a set here. V1's overcall is really bad.

don't post bad beats in the forums, post hands where you really aren't sure of the right play

What's the question? Read the thread title...

My reshove was to isolate V2, I make a raise there and a bad player may call me with a flush draw (as he would be getting good odds).

I'm not posting this to share the bad beat story, this has nothing to do with whether I won or lost the hand, my question is whether or not I played the flop correctly.

I appreciate your input either way.

*Edit to the above*

I raise, and V1 comes over the top and I'm in a tough spot with bottom 2 pair.

I really like how you played it. Your hand is only going to get worse over time and you have to think you're ahead of both the other limpers.

I guess you can worry a bit that you're only getting the short stack heads-up (impossible to imagine that the first villain is going to call your shove with those stack sizes) and that he wouldn't shove 30 bb's with less than a set. But you've read him as weak/loose and it's the kind of position where he'd expect to take it down with such a big raise, so yeah. Generally very good play.

villain only has 5 combos that beat us so im playing the hand like i have the nuts. to get value from his AT and JJ-AA(36 combos that only have a 4-10% chance of improving on turn) im just calling flop.
if overcalled i bet around 90-100k on non T turns, and prob chk/call one street on flush turns. i think we get rid of flush draws on blank turns so shove river if not counterfeited since villain likely has overpairs and most folks dont fold those.
im chk/f when counterfeited on every street
