UB 50-100: First Trifecta and I think it was a mistake

he will be favored a huge majority of the time, 3bets 70% of hands?

I think, in general, it's a mistake to play in a game with a maniac when your under-rolled, as each pot will be expensive both because of him and, more importantly, because the others know he's a maniac.

I'm taking a shot and don't intend to play in this game for any significant length of time until my roll is more sizeable.

Nothing wrong with taking a shot. I prefer a more passive game when doing it.

Hope this one went well for you.

1: i think you should cap this preflop and bet betting alomst any flop. then call down when raised on the flop unless you flop good/turngood/rivergood etc...

2: once you c'r the flop id just bet the turn and hope to be able to 3 bet. that said i'd bet the river.

but the way you played the hand the river is your best played street next to the flop. on the river he'd have to have much more to raise than he'd have to have to bet and he's claerly calling with anything worthwhile whereas he'd simply call a bet if you just bet the river. so well done there given your previous play. id just like to get some more $$ in there on the turn and preflop.

I think that if hes not 3 betting the flop its likely hes not raising the turn. I like the check raise here if you know he is going to bet if checked to. an unthinking LAG player won't just call the check-raise to raise the turn, he'll 3-bet it right away with a J or call down with a pair. but he might bet any pair if checked to on later streets
