I wouldn't reraise PF. I play post flop the same.

I'd throw in a bigger reraise preflop. On the flop(with your raise) I'm betting a little less. Postflop is difficult. He probaly has A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], a K, or the made flush. You're beating the A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], and might be able to bet off the king on the turn(But that's read dependant, and if he has A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] forget it) The thing I don't like is that if I'm him I'll bluff at this river. Also(and this is RD) allot of guys are gonna bet less then 1/2 the pot to get paid off with the flush. Ideally I'd like to bet 300 on the flop and then 600 on the turn if he calls, it probaly buys a free showdown, but also leaves me crippled because my stack is so small...

I like a bigger reraise preflop, and then a push on a checked flop.

Villain isn't folding many hands to that raise to t300. That is certainly not to say you should raise more. Villain created a nice little pot for you that you don't want to get too big PF, so call PF and work from there.

Post flop I play it the same way.
