Sounds like *you* should be opening up your preflop reraising ranges quite a bit. If the "whole site only reraises AA/KK/QQ/AK," other players have probably picked up on this. Find players that raise a little too much and pound on them in position, or hell, even out of position.

Oh yeah my reraising range has been pretty wide still. Standard operating procedure so far is repop 3x their bet they will call with whatever they have. And as long as there's no A or K on the flop c-bet half pot. And with an A or K only cbet it with AA,KK,AK.
Sound right?

I'd reraise to 3.5x's whatever the original raiser raised. Just looks more powerful, offers crappier odds, less implied odds, etc...
Why aren't you c-betting when an A or K drops? Those are the perfect flops to c-bet against most people's calling ranges of reraises. Yeah, the flop missed you, but it probably missed them too....
MP raises $4 with 88, you raise to $14 with 'xy' on the button.
Flop comes K92 rainbow. He checks to you, you bet $22'ish. He folds.
On the turn you may need to reevaluate if he calls. Maybe check behind, maybe fire another bullet, who knows? Depends on the player you're playing, what you can put him on, timing tells to an extent, etc...Don't just give up b/c there's a high card out there and you didn't hit a pair or better...
Beating this game means scooping a bunch of small pots with something or nothing (it doesn't matter). Ask Fnord about that, I've seen him comment on that from time to time...
