TWP: Why not reraise and play the flop? You've got pos and are good postflop. In this case you most likely end up winning.

Because they will call all in with KQs?

I like it, you prob win 5bb and everyone perks up, thinking, "maniac alert" maybe you get called by AJ or whatever, i like it.

still strikes me that reraising and playing a flop is much more to your advantage than to his.

Not if he will call all in preflop with KQs. Then playing a flop only gives him a chance to miss completely and get away.

playing for your stack preflop as a 53% fav. > reraising and playing good postflop?

I don't see it, especially when you add in the times he doesn't have overcards and the times he folds preflop when he would have called a reraise with overs.
