Yes, the question is definitely what stakes. From the stakes I know and love ($25NL), if you get re-raised...meaning you have already raised and you get RE-raised...I call or fold depending on the stack size of the opponent and and the size of the re-raise.

Example A, $25nl: You have AK in EP. You raise a standard amount ($1), and it folds to pokergodlol in late position. He re-raises to $1.75, and has a full stack. I call and play the flop accordingly, and with some degree of caution.

Example B, $25nl: You have AK in EP. You raise a standard amount ($1), and it folds to pokergodlol in late position. He re-raises to $4, and has a full stack. I'm folding this if I don't know who pokergodlol is.

Example C, $25nl: You have AK in EP. You raise a standard amount ($1), and it folds to pokergodlol in late position. He raises it to $3, and has a stack of $5.75. More often than not I'm just putting it all in preflop here, as long as nobody else is in the pot.

Example D, $25nl: You have AK in EP. You raise a standard amount ($1), and it folds to pokergodlol in late position. He raises to $3 and has a stack of $10. Here I'll probably call and if I hit the flop or have a decent draw, insta-push.


But that's me, and that's early position. Honestly I think AK is my worst hand.
