Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (8 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

MP2 (t1495)
CO (t1200)
Button (t775)
SB (t1230)
Hero (t980)
UTG (t1240)
UTG+1 (t975)
MP1 (t105)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 2/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 2/images/graemlins/club.gif.
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP1 all-in for 105 <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, SB completes, Hero ???

I pushed here, having decided that I needed the equity from the pot more than I needed the short stack to bust. Thoughts?

Good push. All the action is completed before you so you know where everybody is at (i.e. weak).

That 190-chip side pot is not insignificant. You're essentially freerolling if SB folds, so the isolation raise looks like a good idea.
