Default Re: Playing against pre-flop re-raise?

Yeah, that's similar to how I currently play.

I'm just not sure what to do in a situation where, say, I open with AK, he re-raises me. I generally try not to call here, as it gives me no information, I'll usually re-raise and see what he does. If he goes all-in, and I generally think of him as a decent player, then I'll fold. If I think he's a moron, or if his chip stack is small (which generally indicates a moron), then I'll call.

Basically, should I be trying to look for situations where I have AK against AA, or should I accept them as part of the game? I know in tournaments where you're always shortstacked (you start off with 50xBB), AK vs AA situations are just part of the game and trying to read a guy for AA is counterproductive.
