Final Pot: t9280

Villain has been raising unimproved high cards. Thinking that possibility, combined with the fact that we had two shorter stacks leaving soon, I take a shot at the pot. It is possible that Villain called because I have been doing the same raises when hitting top pair, but have not shown the hands. Reraising AI after Min-reraise seems to be one of my leaks, which needs to be repaired. Is it too risky to steal this pot when Villain has you covered? How should I consider playing if I do not believe Villian's min-reraise? Should I play a stop &amp; go, or , considering the two short stacks, simply take the move as gospel and and fold with the t2590 I have left?
