Against people with hand ranges like you describe, I really think you should three-bet this for value preflop, regardless of whether BB is already mucking.

Hi Bobby-

What about keeping the pot smaller to pick it up when I miss, and denying the maniac the one asset he has in the ability to easily read hands?

keeping the pot small to pick it up against a loose button and the described UTG is just not where the money is in this hand imo...

you have a perfect situation here to get a lot of money in there...

so i ask you, how many big bets did you give up in this hand by not 3betting preflop, betting the flop and betting the two consecutive streets?? its at least 1.5-3bbs...let him read my hand...all i care about is its very likely better than his [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] (and he can't move me off it)
