Re: Disagree with Ciafonne on seat position???
There is some merit to isolating the maniac since you can gain multiple bets with marginal hands later. But 3-betting marginally with this in mind requires the rest of the table to cooperate: nobody is coming for 3 or making it 4 bets without a premium hand.
I think that's asking too much. Having the maniac on your left means you act last on almost all betting rounds. Finding out what the opponents are going to do is before you decide on your marginal hand is worth a lot.
