Playing paradise 10/20 5 handed with favorite maniac to my right.

Same maniac as has featured in a couple of previous posts, played 1300 hands against this guy and he has seen 1299 flops. PFR 45%. Great fun

I raise UTG with KQ, button (plays weakly but must have a strong hand to call here) and BB (maniac) call.

Flop: T64r

Maniac checks, I bet, both call.

turn: 6 - all check.

river 4.

board is T6644. Maniac bets which is an autobet and means nothing at all.

I'm thinking about raising:

I'm probably behind.
maniac has random hand and will call with A or better 2 pair, raise with a boat and fold otherwise.
button has a strong hand but may fold an ace?
I'm getting 11:4 on the raise.

I'm not confident in this type of situation. Is raising here good, good idea but pot too small, or silly?

Thanks
