How to compete with a maniac?

[stonekiller2]

Last week at Foxwoods, I was on a very good 1-5 table. There were four weak players who chased far too often. A Maniac sat down and began raising everything. At one point
he completed the 3rd street bet on 15 straight hands. There were two players between us, so often when I tried to force players out, we ended up with a huge 4 way pot with everyone going all the way to the river. The pots became so big that nearly everyone began chasing to the river.

My strategy was to continue to play tight and try to get heads-up against him whenever possible. My winnings on the table slowed soon after he arrived. Even knowing my starting cards were better, I was outdrawn often by someone in the pot. I increased my play of drawing hands, but didn't make many of my straights and flushes.

Any suggestions on playing this sort of opponnent?
