IMO this is basic standard. Raise to 3x preflop, the reraise at this level is 77+ AJs/AQos and above. Noway do i limit the range of him to AA/KK here. MOre oftent han not id say AK/TT ish. IMO i push preflop, stop a scary board coming he can bet you out of, but a call is also viable.
Flop = awesome. Your beat by 3 unlikely sets, and AA, and 2 pr which is never. He bets, you cant just raise, it makes your bet look too strong. Id just push again.
Him taking time doesnt always mean he is using it. He may be Multitabing, or peeing, or making a brew. ANything!
After the flop tho if u dont get all in here you suck:)
