turbo maniac is exactly what he sounds like (85/27/3). the other fellow is a typical opponent.

Edit: Mixed the two guys up.

If the maniac didn't raise the turn and river then he's not much of a maniac at all.

well unless someone else was playing for him for the last 500 hands or so, he's quite the maniac. the stats speak for themselves. i cant imagine why you wouldnt raise an unbeatable hand though. he had been 3-betting bottom pair on the turn and hands like 56o preflop. wierd guy.

Well, typical player certainly got off easy. If he realized that the other dude he was a maniac then he would have lost a lot more on this hand.

Hahahaha!!! Very funny! This reminds me of the Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] against a turbo-maniac, who was normally ALWAYS raising. I raised preflop and he only called this time (very suspicious) - all other players folded. Flop was the K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]3 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. I bet he raised and I reraised. He only called. Turn was the 2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. I bet and he only called. Not so fine to have a set of queens against the raising-mainiac and only get a small pot... So I decided to check-raise the river(8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]). But to my anger he also checked. But he won it with the K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] I would have caped it on every street.

Now imagine this kind of play at Party 15/30. Makes you want to sell your organs for a roll no?

Let's just hope it lasts 2 years until I can get up there.
