Let's say a small stack (half buy-in or less) makes a 3-4BB raise, do you ever go over the top for his stack amount to isolate him with AK ?

There's some folding equity and you'll often be in dominating or coin flip position. Hence the +EV.

Thoughts ?

Ummmm, depends how much you wanna gamboooooool. If you have people behind you, you also run the risk of running into Aces or Kings. It also helps if you have reason to believe the guys would call you with a smaller Ace, as opposed to only calling you with pairs.
