Deep stacked in the blinds. Button opens up to $1 and SB calls, so I squeeze with AK since I don't give the button much credit. Not surprisingly, the button folds, but the SB calls. So he calls a raise and then a re-raise, which can't mean much, right?
Question is, when he check-raises on the flop, can I bluff him off his hand? As a result of his preflop play, I'm putting him on a lot of small pairs, which should be easy enough to fold. Is that a bad read? What other sorts of ranges can we put this guy on?
In this case we stack off but, in similar situations, is this a bad spot to attempt a big bluff?

Calling a raise and then calling a reraise with Q5s. Nice hand, sir!

Yikes, that is tough one. Versus an unknown, I usually would fold to a min-raise, especially if my hand is not a made hand.
If you have seen him min-raise and then either fold later, or show down a bluff, I would be more inclinded to push like you did.
I would also 3-bet a little bit more than what you did there. When I squueze, I hit the pot button and then add ~2 more BBs.
