Raise to $45 Button and very straightforward player calls(400) and maniac ($900)completes in the SB Flop comes 5 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Villain pushes . Whats my play? 4 hands earlier villain made the exact same play on a very similar board, original raiser folded showing AK and villains showed 88. thx stew |

Re: AA against total maniac
I think you're leaving out some important pieces of information, like: (a) your image at the table, (b) what the standard pf raise is, (c) the overall action at that table, (d) if you and villain have a history, etc.
But based upon the info that you've provided, this is a pretty easy call, imo. After all, if he had 22 or 5-x, why would he want to scare you out of the pot before you even bet on the flop? |

If you called and he showed 56, we really don't care.

Re: AA against total maniac
xorbie, youre useless responses are of no use when ppl are trying to gain help and info. too many times we see ppl giving their ignorant and arrogant two cents that have no reason.
as for responses that matter ........ our table is starting to get very loose, especially since villains sat down. my thoughts when he pushed were, if he had a set .. i have seen him check raise all in numerous times, so i put him on 34 or flush draw .... could i fold here and loo for a better spot to gain chips off him as he has donated to me many times before |
