NL2: Trips versus a maniac
 

Button is a maniac who raises every hand pf and calls every bet with any hand. Flop bet intention was take BB out and face Button heads up. I was sure my pair was better than his hand. Put him on a draw. What should I do there?

Go all in

push, your wimpy turn bet likely induced a bluff. you're way ahead of his range.

Axo is a hand that floats in and out of my stealing range depending on conditions. Here it is out: fold preflop.

Flop: if you're confident you'll be able to work out if button does have a better hand then yours fine, it's worth betting this to isolate.

Turn: all in, no?
