This is from a 5.50 table.
Should I have raised more preflop? And after the flop, should I have played it differently?

Thanks

No, you played it fine, leave out there hand for analysis next time though, so you get a better response.

Absolutely perfectly played IMO. A reraise should be about 3 times the size of the original raise and your call on the flop was fine. For every time you are shown two pair or a set you will be up against top pair , a draw or in this case considerably less. Some people would start screaming at that guy for knocking them out - you just say "nh" and stick a note on his avatar saying that you will you be sitting down with him at every game he plays from now on.
