Default Re: Losing value or prudence??

Minraising is just going to slow him down here. We have a very strong hand and the last thing we want to do is take the maniac out of the lead when he could have nothing. If you want to get your entire stack in the pot there are more efficient ways to get it done.

And why do you want to slow down a maniac when you have three aces?

I agree with the others and think you're way ahead, but..

..only one poster addressed the real problem with this hand. You know he plays a lot of hands and you know he raises a lot of hands. You get a good PF hand in position, he auto-raises and you just call? The reason you're having a hard time putting him on a hand is because you didn't reraise here. He could be playing a big ace, small ace, middle pair, big pair....basically you have no idea because he pf raises a good deal of the time.

I would have reraised PF to something around $9, depending on what kind of bets he's been calling. Given your line though, I think I would have checked behind as well...but I certainly have leaks in my game.

Why no turn raise?!

As played, 1/2 pot on river... whether or not you call a hefty CR is read dependent
