Two hands against maniac

[ciki57]

Villain is running at 80/35/3.

First hand:

I think flop/turn is fine. I just let the guy bluff into me. But on the river he makes a pretty big bet and i don't know what to put him on. My guess is some two pair like 85. Anyone calls this?

Second hand:

I guess i could raise this flop with all the draws out. But lets forget about flop. What to do on the turn the way I played this? Normaly this is an easy fold, but against a guy like that...

If these guys are truly maniacs then i would call both bets.

HAnd 1 if he's a maniac you will call because the whole point of you not reraising the turn was to call this bet on the river, though your holding is marginal. If you have seen this character make similar moves with banana's the call here is most likely good.

Despite hand 2 being the i've got you beat move if it's some maniac look him up if you think you've got his range destroyed.
