Default Should I push here or will a reraise work?

Another hand from last nite, same villain as other hand but earlier, He had been pretty aggro at the final table and from late. I had already reraised him once from my bb with 33, he had called and I took it down with a flop bet. Should I be pushing here or just reraising? Also should i be calling once he 3 bets it?

Call... there's a decent chance he's "taking a stand" against your re-raises, and if not - you're probably flipping as often as not...

Pushing is a tad of an overbet, but not terrible. After the re-pop, you still have to call.

I call.

And I also push with the initial raise, though I don't have a problem with a smaller raise either.

In fact, I had a similar situation at my FT last night only we were six handed and I had AK. I pushed there and villan folded. This bought me a few chips (putting me ahead of the field) and also shut him down for a few hands, which was good because the rest of the table was just playing uber tight and letting me take their blinds.

The stack sizes make your pf reraise awkward, you're fairly committed w/ that reraise, and when villain just calls in position, you'll only have a potsized bet left. What're you going to do if you miss? Are you goign to shove any flop? Ugly reversed implied odds. I shove or call, where shove &gt; call for me.

Call because there sooooted.

If we give him a range of 77+, AJs+, &amp;KQs we have 39% equity. Pot odds are almost 2 to 1 which makes this an easy call.

The big question is his range. If we really tighten it to JJ+ and AQs+ then our equity is at 29% which is close but still a call.

If the table dynamics were different, like if you had a microstack at the table, then you might want to reconsider. Since everyone has a playable stack though, and villian has been aggro, I would call.

Edit:

Oh yeah, Push preflop. As you can see from these numbers, after the reraise you are pot committed.
