The thing I hate the most is telling him "gl" before you push - if he had any doubts that his top pair was good, he would've forgotten about them as soon as you typed that.

Aside from that, this is 100% about reads.

If there's a good chance that villain is bluffing at the pot, or if there's a good chance he'll lay down a weak pair or a draw in this spot, then I think it's OK. We've got outs if we get called.

But if the villain's been well behaved or he doesn't know how to lay down a pair, we'll be getting our money in with the worst of it.
