Default Two $4/180 big hands against good thinking player, standard?

Edit: Got confused, villain is up like 2 K and a quality roi.

Im pretty sure he realizes Im not an idiot and we haven't gotten involved much. He has been pretty aggressive since we got in the money, raising often. I have restolen on him from the bb previously and maybe reraised him once other time, I'm def seen as TAG by him I think. How do you play these?

Hand 1. If you've never cold called anybody while he was at your table, just raise to 10000 or something. Cold calling will make him suspicious. If he has QQ+ or AK, he will probably push.

Hand 2. It is 6 handed so you probably have the best hand so push it.

The first I would RR to the lower end of what your other ReRaises were 6000-8000ish. UTG he has something. You want a call, push or RR. You don't want a fold, but you want a bigger pot.

#2 If he saw my cards on the first hand and is likely to remember, I push and hope he sees the push as a steal. Often looks weaker than RR.. Has he called any pushs?
If you didn't show ...same as above except top end of RR range. As fold isn't as bad a result.

I would re-raise both hands to like 10-11k.

He had not been calling pushes, either taking it down without a fight or folding to reraises but taking the majority without a fight.
