The results are irrelevant so I didn't trim them out. I'm wondering in general what do you do when you put in a raise with a good hand from the button, and you get raised from someone in the blinds. In this situation, I felt AQ is not enough to rereraise him. Calling seems troublesome to me with AQ going to a flop demonstrating weakness.
What happens to me is sometimes I start getting the "thinking what the blinds are thinking" syndrome. I start wondering if he's reraising me with a worse hand simply because his read on me is that I'm making a position raise. What makes this situation crappier is that I had raised from LP around 4-5 times in the last 2 orbits.

If it was just you and the blinds reraising light is a possibility...however in this case with 2 limpers in the pot, your raise, and then SB calling your raise, his 3-bet represents a real hand most of the time I would imagine.
