Fun hand against an ultra maniac, play it for me

[wdcbooks]

Party Poker 5/10 6 max

Villain in this hand is a maniac. Every other maniac looks up to him and wishes they had the guts to play like he does.
Stats are 93/87 after 90 hands. AF is pretty irrevlevant given the information below, but it was well into double digits.

I don't think I have ever had a better read on a player, for whatever a read is worth in this situation. He played every hand, and he capped every hand preflop. I would treat any exceptions as bathroom breaks or something, because he would cap anything against as many opponents as wanted to get involved.

Preflop is easy. Postflop he operated by some easily defined rules.

1. He will cap every street with any pair, and any ace. I am a little unsure on how he plays draws. but I would assume cappage is likely.

2. He will always check and call any bet and fold on the river if unimproved on any street. In other words he will fold on the end only with absolutely nothing.

So if he is betting or raising postflop he has met condition one and you can assume he has something.

He has run over the table while people wait for big hands against him. I have seen people folding ridiculously often and a couple people have left. I have won one huge pot against him and lost two mid size pots.

I have complete control over how many bets to put in on each street. How many do you put in on each street?

He is on the button, folded around to him, naturally he raises, SB folds. I have T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] in the BB.

How many bets preflop? (this one seems easy)

Flop is T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 3 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

He is in a raising mood from this point forward, so it is up to us as to how many bets go in the pot, how many bets on each street?

Turn is 2 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]


River is 3 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

I know we can pokerstove this and solve the problem mathematically, but I would like to see how people approach it as if they were on the time bank playing the hand. So know cheating by playing ahead as, of course, I didn't know the turn and river ahead of time. I know I played it poorly, but this isn't a situation you get into often.
