Default A2xx and A3sxx in BB against maniac raiser

I've encountered a guy in my 3/6 tables that will 3-bet just about anything preflop, and always go for a cap if possible as well. his VP%IP is somewhere in the 50% range, his PFR% is 20 but I haven't logged all my sessions in PTO yet, it's much higher. My question is should I be call his bets and 3-bets pfr in the BB with A2 and a small pair, or A3s and maybe a 6, or two suited cards like Kxs? He's running over every table, and just not enough of a selection anymore even on Party to completely avoid him.

Burdz - Yes. And probably even with worse hands.

When someone wants to gamble by raising your big blind too often before the flop, you're forced to gamble too. It's either that or usually give up your big blind, which I believe would be generally incorrect.

Just my opinion.

Call? [censored]. Reraise. Why the hell would you want to avoid someone like that? Did someone chop off your balls?

Why would you want to avoid this player? Just brace yourself for some variance and gut the fker.

B/c I usually strive to be the most aggro player at the table, I dislike competition, but that's what I'm going to have to beat if I want to win at higher levels... [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Variance is high, possible profit is higher.

Its nut peddle to the metal baby!
