So, I've seen him reraise with a hand that was not AA or KK. My question is what should my reraise be, because I feel I have to given this previous hand. If not for the previous hand, I would very possibly fold to a reraise. I can raise the other player all in, but his reraise shows me that he will already commit to that. If he reraises me, then I'll likely dog it. Obviously I want him out. Any advice on this conundrum?

I dont know if im right here but i would probably push... there are only 2 hands your really scared of out there and on top of that you will only lose 400 if you lose to UTG?
