the only hand i realistically put villain on that beats us is AK, and given the fact that he might be a maniac plus the fact that we have 11 outs against AK...i still like the 3-bet.

that's way too narrow...why not AQ, QQ, A8, A4, 88...if he's a LAG, any of these are possible, but we only have 30 hands on him, so we don't know for sure if he is a LAG.

Other than perhaps 3-betting preflop, this is exactly the way I play it.

The 3-bet pf is all player and position specific.
Also, I would not 3-bet the turn. I would just call and then call a river bet ui.

How could I have played this hand better?
MP2 appears to be a maniac but I have only 30 hands on him atm.

If MP2 is a nut, then 3-bet to isolate him pf. Another good way to play this hand is to ping a [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] on the river.

Other than that, I like the way you played it.

(Put UTG+1 on your buddy list. He appears to be retarded.)

[Trainwreck]

All fine by me...

AJ any, gets me in a heap of trouble though, so I am mighty cautious with it in general.

Hero did not 3-bet the turn.
