Default Re: Reraising preflop

I reraise PF for a number of reasons. Sometimes, if a LAG has been raising my blind from the button every time, I'll reraise with PPs and broadways.

My RR standards fluctuate, mainly depending on my opponent. I RR with AA/KK/(usually)QQ almost every time. I do it to a)define my hand and b) get more money in the pot, making post flop decisions easier. I'll RR with AK and such in position or if there is alot of dead money in the pot too, and other such reasons.

Flat calling with AA/KK is not good IMO. Unless you are playing super deceptive vs tough opponents, I think you should RR 98% of the time. Yes, you'll be greeted with folds sometimes, but the benefit of playing a bigger pot with a bigger hand exceeds it.
