Against most opponents I wouldn't even have to think about it. But, given my read on the situation, I really don't mind a call. What will he call with that I won't want to see? A bigger ace or a pocket pair 77 or above. The chance that holds one of these hands is a risk, but I think it is one worth taking. Furthermore the possibility that he will call with a hand like QJ or KT also strengthens my position. Winning the hand will put me in a commanding position for the rest of the tournament.

With all due respect, your thinking is very flawed. I'd much rather take the blinds of 900 without a showdown than have him call my re-raise push. If I KNEW that he had QJ, I still don't want him calling.
