Re: Dealing w/ a maniac
[ QUOTE ]
I would really appreciate any advice on how to better deal with a total maniac.
Also, any opinions on the buy in in relation to the blinds would be helpful.
Thanks in advance.

Either raise the buy-in, or better yet, lower the blinds. Usually 100 BB is a good starting stack. .25/.50 with $50 buy in works, so does .50/$1 with $100 buy in.
Against a maniac, your variance will increase a fair amount. Just wait for a hand and re-raise whenever you enter the pot after the maniac. This will make you money, and/or make the maniac rethink his strategy a bit. "Fight Fire With Fire"
