Does he always follow up the flop like that? Seems more like a maniac than an LAG (if he has something other than the other 2 aces or KK, thats just crazy).

I probably would have popped him back preflop...you would have had like 40% of his stack in the middle after doing so, and he'll probably commit the rest on most any flop. Playing it the way you did generates maximum fold equity on the turn, but I'm not sure if thats what you want if hes overplaying QQ-KK. He'll certainly be confused by your line, though, and if he folds now he may be more inclined to make a bad call later in the game when more is at stake.

Agreed. It's fortuitous that a backdoor opened up, but unless your LAGgy friend folds two pair on that board given 3.5:1 odds, I'm not seeing how your line gets you more money.

Why not reraise preflop after he raises pot?

Reason why I called the flop: I think I have Villain tied or beat, but I'm not sure if MP3 has str8 or 2-pair and is going for a checkraise.

Reasons why I pushed the turn: I am representing turned top str8. If I'm tied with Villain's AAxx, then I steal a big pot. Also, it's good for my table image to represent strength. I was planning to call any bet by Villain (like you said, he could have KKxx or QQxx), so I'd rather put in the money first. Also, there's always a chance that Villain will luck into something, so I don't mind a fold even if he has KKxx or QQxx.
