[NL10] Avoid Maniac Style
 

hi there,
after a medium down at NL50 and NL25 i started to play NL10 again to find some leaks without paying huge pots... so i decided to save more hands and post it here...
but as i joined to NL10 tables, i found a problem. what to do against these lowlimit maniacs?

i know there should be only one hand per thread but i decided to post 2 to show you, what i mean...

1st hand I might've re-raised the flop since you're basically a favorite over anything but a straight.

2nd hand I think he had a 10, so it was a good fold.

Re: [NL10] Avoid Maniac Style
 

Hand one your preflop raise was too small; make it like $.8 to go there. Your c-bet was also too small, beause that board is super wet. You should bet around pot on those kinds of board textures. I also am 3balling him on the flop there.

Hand two seems to be well played.

1: b/3b shove flop
2: Ugh, fold
