You got yourself in trouble here i think. I call but I'm not happy about it. In situations where you are uneasy try making smaller bets, they leave you with more wiggle room going forward. I'd bet slightly over 1/2 the pot on the flop, and 1/2 again on the turn. You aren't giving him odds if he's drawing and if he's ahead you lose less. If he's behind the smaller bets will often entice calls from hands that would normally fold.

Yeah...6/6, Ah/Th, or Ah/Jh are his most likely holdings. Those hands would be reasonable for a tight player to simply limp in and would coincide with his post-flop play.....This is a pretty close decision, but I think I would call. After his re-raise there is 19K in the pot and it costs you 6K to call. Those are very good odds, so you would have to be convinced that you were beaten before folding.
