Re: Am I donking away chips here?

I prefer playing poker. See what happens on the turn.
Overpairs are more likely to fold on the flop push.

medium strength hand against maniac
Villian is 58/29 and very aggressive post flop after 60 hands. He's been calling down when he's got any piece (although he hasn't had to do so in a big pot). This is the second time i reraised him...
