Dealing with a guy re-raising me light pre flop

how do you consider 4x your original raise (over 4x) to be a "light raise"? I think that is a perfect pf reraise that SHOULD get hands like 55 to fold.

BTW, nice catch! I would have laughed for the 5 mins he rambled on

sb raises buttons raise and bet 3/4 of the pot on the flop, most weak-tight 1/2 players dont do this air. i maybe wrong but i guess you are called here pretty much all the time.

What made you go all in after a strong PF re-raise and a 2/3's pot continuation bet?

IMO, it looks like he's baiting you for an overly aggressive move like the one you made.

EDIT:

actually bothered to read the post. Given the info on the player, its not really a bad move, but i'm laying it down on the flop, and probably PF. What was his play like post flop?

You say the he was constantly re-raising you, but here he follows through, which makes me curious how he played against you at other times.

Can you list the hands that fold given the action?

Unpaired big cards, 66, and 77.

You may get called by unpaired big cards. I played a similar style to yours this summer and I remember at least 3 incidents where my all in bets on flops like this were called by missed overs. I like the play (you probably have the best hand and may get called by worse hand) and if you are called you'll get light action from him most of the night.
