Default AKs against Maniac and Tricky player. Reraise the turn?

I had been sitting at this table for 30 or so hands. BB solid and tricky player. I noticed that if a lot of people were in the pot, he would loosed up his hand selection a fair amount. If the pot got big he would try some tricky stuff to win it. MP1 was a borderline maniac. In almost every hand, raising to the river with nothing frequently--"Any 2 will do, and bluff like crazy if you don't hit"

A couple of others seem to be decent, but predictable, players. My table image was probably weak-tight.

Should I have reraised the turn?

What were you thinking? 6 falls on the turn and you call (thinking you were behnd?). Then the worst card in the deck falls on the river, and you bet right into them! Either you think you're ahead at the turn and raise or you ahve to call down. To just call the turn and then bet the river when the scariest of scarecards come makes no sense.

You obviously scared BB with your river bet, he thought you had a Q. Too bad you're still probably losing to his 6.
