Default Re: Too Aggressive against a \"Maniac\"

I usually play pretty tight unless I am single tabling and can get a good read like I had on this guy, not on his hand but on the fact he was all over the road. I put him on a wide rande of hands from AA - 22 and many other non pp's, I think I had him on a KJ, possibly suited in spades, but didn't have to be. Normally I would have folded to the re raise and just waited for a better spot, I think, but I figured that it was 50/50 so I was getting a little there and I could make it back off of him if I lost and he stayed at the table. Anyway, I put him all in and he called and flipped over KK. On the turn a blank and the river one of my two outs, I boat up, he loses and I feel like a dirty old man.
Moral of the story, if you play aggressive people will not respect your good hands so you can drag them in when you do get a premium hand, but they will suck out occasionally.

Was my all in horrible given the fact that he really could have had rags?
