UTG is 11/7.7/3.1 over 940 hands
No reads on MP.

Am i right to reraise this to $6 to find out where i am with UTG. If he reraises can we put him on AA or KK and let this go?

Of course this is a reraise. You're not reraising to find out where you are, you're ahead of his range, and you're reraising for value.

But yes, if he pushes, you're done.

well yea depending on your history with him, that or AK. If you have played with him and seen him play those hands, what kind of line does he take with them? If you're using PT I would go back and check and you might be able to get an answer yourself. He might know your range for 4 betting and call pre and shove the flop

why did u raise so much preflop?? I realize we're OOP, but that's extreme throwing 24BB's in the pot PF. I probably make it like $3.5 or $4

also, make sure u reload to $25 whenever necessary

I agree with jonvy, you could have gotten the same result with the smaller raise.

I guess there are two reasons i raised to $6. The first being i thought he had raised it to $1.50 and the second I wanted to make sure he would not call with AK.

About the reloading... I forgot a few times last night because i was watching watching the NHL. I normally do keep it at 25 after every hand.

You should get the AHK script where it reloads for you ^^

I hate to argue semantics, but an 11/7.7/3.1 over 940 hands is closer to a nit than a TAG. Reraising is definitely right with QQ, and almost always definitely right with a wider range given the fold equity you have preflop. I'd 3-bet suited connectors with position most times against this kind of player simply because you can narrow his range so accurately, giving you a significant post flop advantage.
