Re: three hands against one maniac
Tried to follow the thread in flat mode but now my head is spinning. I assume your reads (e.g., strong means weak) are right on.
Hand one:
Preflop easy reraise based on your reads, except perhaps if she was way up front (even laggys tighten up in early position).
On the flop easy bet and call of the reraise although you might want to reraise based on your read.
On the turn against a more typical player you want to raise to sometimes take it right there or win on the river with a flush or even a pair. But against the laggy you might be better off inducing bets on the river since you are calling no matter what. So I like the flat call.
On the river it's an auto call. Expect to lose but you need to be calling down these types.
Hand two:
OK I guess. Note that the deuce (compared to let's say an eight) really hurts your hand here, taking away three outs twice for the times she has a small pair
Hand three:
"I'm planning to put at least 12 bets in on the flop"
You see the flop and you think you are a substantial favorite to be ahead. So you plan to put in some action, that's OK. But if the laggy lady had gone to let's say five bets you are probably well behind and she isn't going anywhere. So you need to slow down there.
Otherwise you played OK.
