Do your cards even matter?

yes. it's wayyyy better to resteal 76s or 22 than 73o. people underestimate how much better 76s is than 73o.

In this, there's the underlying assumption that you'll get called. I've always assumed (and tried to make it so) that when I re-steal, I do it only when I'm pretty sure I'm NOT going to get called, i.e. (like you mentioned) going for a resteal if I have seen that player open more pots then should be his fair share - then you can assume that he does it with a much wider range, and cannot stand a re-raise.

you can only assume it's likely he can't call a reraise. if he has AK, he's going to raise, and then he's going to call your push. if that happens, it's better to have 67s than 73o. that doesn't mean you should never reraise with 73o - it might be that both are +EV and 67s is just a little more +EV.
