I'd only reraise on the bubble preflop with JJ-AA and AK in tough situations that pot commit me.
I'm not sure if this is your question though...

In that situation where you have the chips and the SB is acting fairly weak (as far as raising goes), i would do that play with a lot of hands. However, you also have position on him so i wouldnt be afraid to take a flop.

On this hand I would want KK or K7./images/graemlins/grin.gif

Given no read on the player, the SB put half of his chips in with a 4x raise when he could be waiting for UTG to blind out. Seems like a pretty strong play to me (ie he can't fold to your reraise). If he had just pushed at you I would consider that a weaker play. You have him covered nicely though. Position here doesn't really matter to me here since I would expect him to go all in on just about any flop. I place him on AA-TT and maybe AK-AQs. I would call with AA-QQ and maybe AKs. Losing 200 chips here is not a big deal. Losing 1700 is. If you had decent folding equity I would definitely add in some more hands maybe down to the same as his raising standards.

I thought I still might have some fold equity in the situation. In retrospect I think I was wrong.

This player was pretty loose aggressive. Assume he would make this move with hands like AA-55,AKs-A4s,AK-A7,KQs-K8s,KQ-KT,QJs-QTs (about the top 18-19% of heads up hands). Which by the way is true, he had one of the hands at the very bottom of this range. What reraising standards would be appropriate against this type of player? Still AA-QQ,AKs only?
