Default Re: How to counter the idiot at the table?

I did realize on the turn that I was probably beaten, but look at my odds. I got 15:1 for my money and I couldn't expect the maniac to blow up the river like that. I knew exactly that my chances weren't great, but the pot odds somewhat tied me to the pot. That's exactly the problem I got with that type of player. Usually I keep pots small with just one pair and I can even make a laydown, but NOT when I get that sort of odds to continue. Looking at the final pot, I even had the implied odds to spike a third ten in which case I would have re-raised of course.
