Call/Raise on the button preflop...anyone do this?

[PokerSlut]

I was in a hand a few minutes ago that I thought I'd relate:

1/2 Holdem on PP

I'm in the BB with AK, 2 limpers in MP, and the button limps. I raise, limpers call, and the button RE-raises.

At this point I am totally confused. I basically check-called the rest of the way (nothing hit my AK) just to see what he had. He had a 77 and caught a set on the turn.


Does anyone do this, or recommend this kind of thing? It's the first time I've ever seen something like this and it really threw me off.
