Been reading a lot of posts, commenting on some, never posted before... been playing well lately, and getting lucky as well... I'm pretty aggressive on the whole, play primarily party 2/4 and sixhanded 1/2

Table here is very fluid in its makeup (occasionally tight, usually loose, lots of poor post flop play, many rotating players), ythomas is a known bluffer, something of a LAG, i've got no read on the other guy (he just sat down and i'm multi-tabling, and cleaning up on the other table)

standard?

I'd love to see what the more experienced players think of this. In 90% of games, I lay it down on the flop when it comes back capped. But when there's a maniac-type in the game then that loosens up everyone, pots get big, and in my view you essentially have to fasten your seat belt and call it down.

I am still kicking myself for a play I made yesterday in another pot with a maniac in which I folded QT with the T being top pair on the turn when I bet out and it came back capped. As it turned out the maniac hit his five-outer to trip up on the river but when I saw the 9T I folded to I got a little queasy.
