Good fold. He is likely doing this with 99 or KJ some of the time considering that you two likely play together enough. But, he won't be doing it often enough for you to make calling a viable option.

I called, he had 99. These two limpreraise hands werent too exciting, I just wanted to show the amount of abuse you are allowing yourself by constantly folding to these limpreraises. Maybe Im just fortunate that they never have AA-KK when I do decide to call, but you cant just let someone steal 1/4th of your stack because they "must have AA or KK". A lot of these guys don't play AA+KK like that because its "too obvious" and they save their somewhat weaker hands for the limp reraises.

The limp/reraise is a very attractive option for him with his stack for the medium pocket pairs. A normal raise can get him in trouble when called, and seeing the flop in a limped pot is ok for him. Reraising a raise gives him great FE and he will often still have the best hand when called. Also he can still fold if very heavy action develops behind him.

I'd sooner expect a regular to know that than a beginner, so I'd def. call against a regular.

It's 5am, so it might just be the tiredness talking, but: it seems like you made these limp reraise posts to get the message to regulars, "stop limp reraising me you [censored]! I just might call with something you don't expect."
