nobody in their right minds reraises you simply because there's a dead SB in the pot...with a dead BB I have seen it plenty in tourneys but not in a cash game with a 2$ SB up for grabs.

You might be ahead, but re-raising would be effectively a bluff and calling would be very bad - he seems to be fairly laggy pre-flop, so there will be opportunties to get his cash further down the road.

But look how much has now gone into the pot two limpers + sb + blinds. i raised to make an easy $16 has he repoped to make a easy $36?

Another factor is the size of his reraise, which leads me to think that if he isnt pulling a move, he's got ak.

You might be right, but this is just going to be very difficult to play post flop if you call and if you reraise you get allin with AK minimum, but you might bluff a hand that should call.

ps I just flat call preflop anyway.

What doubleup said.

He might be re-raising light because he's one of those crazy 2p2 posters who are huge winners. But what are your options:
Re-raise all in, which will effectively make your hand a bluff, unless you put him on AK and want him to call with that.
Call - then you have to only play for set value - which I don't think you have odds for.
Fold - you lose a little.

 very sensible reply , i agree , you will have a better chance to double through him along the line , when he tries this move when your holding a monster , patience in this spot my friend.

I like the raise pre-flop, although I'd make it slightly cheaper (4BB.) Easy fold to the re-raise though.
