Thanks for the input. I did push and he called with AA and I busted out.

I would do the same thing again because I think there is a good chance he is making that small raise with hands other than AA. Has anyone had success getting a raiser to fold by making this kind of suspicious reraise?

This is a hard question to answer, because it will depend on all sorts of factors. A small raise will get the villain to fold if he is weak-tight, if he is on complete garbage, or has a easily dominated hand. If I raise with AJo in CO+1, and face a re-raise on the button (or worse, a RR and a call from the blinds) I probably dump it if I don't have a read. Not too many people are re-raising with AT in this position. (This may be the weak-tight example I mentioned above.)

That said, for most on-line tournament getting villains to fold after they've made an initial raise is a losing battle. Don't try it.
