A General Question on how to counter TAG player

[barabe]

I am sitting at a table right now agaionst an opponent who is 17/16/5. I raised my AKs, he reraises me, we are the only two remaining, and I call, he re raised form 20 to 80 cents by the way. I am in position against him. This is 5-10 cent. Then into like a 2 dollar pot with the dead money, post flop that I miss, he bets half pot. I fold. After I fold I am at a loss of how to take this opponent. His stats are a lot like mine, so I wonder if that was a steal. Even if it was he could've easily have had AK, which is same as me, or AA-QQ. So, what do I do? Should I be trying to steal more blinds from these opponents? Make myself seem looser? Maybe even limp with a few extra hands to screw my stats up? He is likely to see my stats and paly tight against me, unless I manipulate m stats...
