AKo against a maniac

Going for a checkraise on the flop, in an effort to get heads-up with the maniac, is something to consider. But your flop bet did achieve the same result.

On the turn, if you think Button is fairly certain to bet whether he has you beat or not, then I think I prefer check-calling.

On the river, I think calling down with ace-high against this 58/40 guy is fine.

This advice seems perfect to me.
