Given that action, and assuming he's got some 2+2 preflop shenanigans up his sleeve, his range is probably more like

Re: bottom 2 pair flop fold?
fold.
I like the flop bet and the reraise, b/c it makes it obvious that you are very strong. Then you can fold when the regular kicks sand in your face anyway.
