Quick preflop decision

This is right out of a hand from the Ciaffone/Reuben book. They recommend you reraise preflop and bet I think 3/4 of the pot on the flop no matter what. When I get home, I will post the hand. This strategy has worked quite well for me with med. pairs OOP against a late pos. raise.

the hand example was actually 99, but I thin kthis has actually been discussed before. a bunch of posters (including me) disagreed with the logic behind it, and in essence, the play they speak about works better w/o looking at your hand since the "beauty" of the play is that reraising a loose raiser -> betting big on the flop is +EV. It's just here with a small pair, potentially calling and stacking him off is >+EV.
