Last night, I met my first super maniac. He would raise pre-flop with anything, re-raise a pre-flop raise or cap it altogether. You could pretty much count on him raising the flop and turn and calling/raising the river.
He was catching two pairs, baby flushes, etc.
I didn't limp in with anything unless it was 1010 to AA or AKs. I finally get AA and push hard. There was a three card flush on the board but he never re-raised my flop and turn bet. The river drops a Q and he wins with two pair, Q and 6. Please note he capped this pre-flop so when the Q dropped I figured he hit his set.
After that, I didn't catch anything to challenge him.
When this type of player emerges, do you play super aggressive and bet into him or wait back and call/raise his bets?
Thanks!
