I'm pretty happy with 2 pairs but the villian is tight and I should have a pretty tight table image. So what could he be reraising with? I suspect he might be stealing.

With your stack, PUSH!!!!!

with your stack this is a super easy push. You are probably ahead, if you aren't, oh well, but you've gotta push here. A couple of people like their hands, plus there are draws, just get it in now because it's going in on the turn anyway.
