Re: Ace baby in the blinds vs a maniac..... how to play?
why are we messing around with offsuit aces? they'll NEVER flop a great hand, and maniacs live off opponents playing back with mediocre hands. horrible, terrible RIO setup. I fold both pre.
At NL25, we want this guy to stack off when we have the nuts. You're playing for blind money. MAYBE justified as metagame, so he doesn't think we're nutpeddling, but do that with suited connectors and 1-gappers, suited aces, small pairs, hands that can flop big once in a while. I'd prefer an offsuit connector to an offsuit ace to dork around with.
