Re: Why did I play this bad hand?
[ QUOTE ]
I think it's justified in that I knew costs me $90 to see a turn, and if I hit I get about $1850 from him... about 80% sure of that, I'd say.

Your reasoning is atrocious. You assume you get $1850 from him when you hit, but villain is a maniac capable of having any 2 cards. So what makes you think he'll have such a strong hand that he'll get all of his chips in? Was he going all in every single hand? I find this hard to believe.
Generally, calling with junk is better against tight players who have trouble making tough laydowns, because the fact that they're in the hand indicates that they have a strong hand. A large percentage of the time that you play 24o against this villain you're going to fold post-flop. And a large percentage of the time you hit your miracle straight or trips and try extracting chips he'll fold his junk Q9o on a 244 board or something like that.
