He knows if I'm in a hand that I have at least decent cards.

This, then, would be your read on him. If after betting into you and getting raised(even a mini-raise) by you he STILL pushes in....
Well, you said his read on you is that you will be in/bet with something good. Thus, I would think he has something better than good and you laydown was good.
However, you also said that he likes to gamble. He could well be pushing you around. Thus, while it may have been a good laydown, I would have called his all in for a couple of reasons:
(1) You may well have the best hand
(2) If not, he will see that not only do you play very good hands, but also marginal ones as well. So, even if you lose, he will think twice about bullying you next time.
Thus, you may lose this hand but it may be +EV in the long run.
What do you think?
