Eventually everyone started catching on and were playing every round.

I hope being a 2+2er, that you knew better than that...

No, though I did loosen up quite a bit. It took everyone an amazingly long time to figure out what he was doing, and initially everyone was folding to his preflop raises. Risking 1 big bet preflop against a random hand to make a gauranteed 10 big bets if you hit the flop in any significant way is pretty hard to pass up, though I got pretty crappy cards. Once people started capping preflop 3-4 ways, I pretty much went back to normal, since in addition to beating the maniac's random hand I also had to beat their probably slightly more legitimate hands.
