Default Re: Flat Calling Raises with Kings Preflop

I don't like losing the opportunity to give opponents to call a re-raises preflop with vastly inferior hands. Whenever I re-raise with AA or KK, I seem to get a caller(s). Then flop goes I bet they fold 90% of the time. If my opponents are gambling type players, I love to make them pay for raising hands such as AJs, ATs, their eyes seem to light up and can't call fast enough for the chance to bust a big stack, even if they know the odds are heavily against them.

In addition, if you're only reraising with AA, then you become extremely readable. Perhaps you're reraising other hands to compensate.
