A2s against Mr Mega Maniac

adsman · #1 02-28-2006, 01:55 PM

This guys stats were 100%/56%/9.2 after 97 hands. Pretty damn impressive I thought. I mean, if you're going to do something do it properly that's what I say.

So what do you think of this line?

Good to play against a man committed to his craft. Well played.

I suppose once I've hiked up my skirt, picked up my balls and called on the flop, the rest I woulda done the same. And apparently from his stats, you are comparing your hand to truly any random hand, I think I would likely do the same. Especially if I've seen him act this way over a 100 hands.

I wonder what his cutoff for raising PF is. And what he won't bet with postflop.

The hand looks fine by the way.

What are you doing if the turn isn't an A?

Honestly - probably whether or not somebody raised in front of him along with some ridiculous cutoff.

I still call this down, no ace.

does he ever check behind on the river? does he fold much?

i would consider bet/calling the river, if I thought he might bluff. if he was really awful maybe c/r/call 3bet. seems like we're ahead a lot.

If he limps in preflop then he can find a fold on the flop. But if he raises preflop then he's taking it all the way and will only back down with complete air. Even then he'll still call the river. He was up about 40BB if that's believable. He didn't seem to like me very much though.

You have to get in more bets agianst this guy with top pair, even on that nasty board.

c/ring river looks best imo.

Yeah, it's believable.

This isn't a big surprise either. I think maniacs get really sick of me interfering with their fun, sometimes.

Anyway, your play in the posted hand seems all right to me. I probably see a showdown against this guy even if I don't catch an ace or a straight.
