This doesn't seem to be getting too much attention just yet so here's the scoop. I was the AK player, vs AJ who caught one of 4 outs. Was I correct to reraise all in with top 2 here? I read his hand as such - no reraise PF so probably A-High instead of a high pair. Raise on flop - probably ATs, AJ, AQ maybe AK also. I don't think he would raise a made straight (QJ) since I bet about the pot into him. He could make more by letting me bet the flop and turn, then he can raise the river. On this read, I came back over the top. After the hand he said "So, you weren't bluffing." So he must have thought I had nothing, and his TP decent kicker was good enough to call an all-in reraise.

Does anyone play this differently? Maybe call the raise and push on the turn if a Q or J doesn't hit to make it one to a straight?
