Default \"If you Can\'t Call a Reraise...\": Two hands where I raise in EP

Two hands from the Stars 150. Happened very close to each other. I have a reasonable image, not ultra-tight but not loose either. None of the big stacks are maniacs.

In both cases, I looked at my hand and pretty much autoraised to 3x. Then I looked at the size of the stacks to act after me and wondered if I might as well have rags.

I can't call/push vs a reraise. Can I? My hand doesn't like more than half of flops if I'm flat called, and I'm out of position. Usually when I get action it's a reraise anyway.

Thoughts?
