Re: Maniac to your left.
Sort of depends on the hour. In the first hour, during rebuys, the maniac's range is enormous. You can do a search for threads on playing the rebuy hour. You should take a stand with hands you might consider folding when you can't rebuy- you know he is.
After the break, I think I'd be looking for a situation where I can represent some weakness and try to stack him with a medium large hand pre-flop or check-raise him post-flop. If he's overplaying his hands, he will eventually run into a wall- ideally it's your wall. But you should also be able to get him to commit too many chips to his marginal holdings, before he releases.
