AKo against a maniac

paperboyNC · #1 12-15-2005, 11:48 PM

Villain is 60/3/2.24 after 100 hands. He doesn't raise pre-flop, but he plays almost every hand and bets/raises with anything or with nothing. So far he's been kicking my arse and I'm down 18BB at this table.

His detailed aggression stats:
Flop AGGR: 1.00
Turn AGGR: 3.67
River AGGR: 10.00

Absolute Poker 5/10 Hold'em (6 max, 5 handed)

Pre-Flop Hero is UTG with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
Hero raises, 4 folds, Maniac (BB) calls.

Flop: (4.6 SB) K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)
Maniac (BB) bets, Hero raises, Maniac (BB) 3-bets, Hero calls.

Turn: (5.3 BB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)
Maniac (BB) bets, Hero raises, Maniac (BB) 3-bets, Hero calls.

River: (11.3 BB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)
Maniac (BB) bets, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 13 BB

Seems about right.

I'd either cap the flop or cap the turn. probably the flop. he's doing this with any pair/flush draw/maybe straight draw.

Definite balls to the wall situation.

I like capping the flop, if he still bets the turn I call UI
On the river I call his bet , or bet if he checks.

As the hand was played I do not raise his bet on the river.

i just get all my bets in early. i make him define his hand as soon as possible to a point where i decide calling down seems prudent. then i call down and start punching walls

a. because i lost the hand and went too far
b. because i won the hand and didn't go far enough
