UTG reraise preflop seemed weak, I thought about pushing to take the pot. What do you think?

After the break I put him on AA, before the break I put him on any two cards and push post flop in a heartbeat.

Isn't a limp reraise usually terrifying?

UTG limping and then re-rasing is really telling you he has got AA, KK or (if he is a bit loose) QQ. The small amout of the reraise indicates AA. With KK he shouldt take the risk of a A floppig.
If he was bluffing with his reraise he would certainly have made it bigger.
AKs is not a had I like t call reraises with. I would have folded or gone allin. If I play I want to see five cards, not three.
But of course, as this was in the rebuy period he can have anything.
