Default Re: 25NL - AKo against TAG and Maniac

3-bet PF to isolate against Maniac in position. I think this is far and away the best play. By just calling, you're 3-handed, OOP and stuck between a maniac and a TAG - that means you act after the maniac, but before the TAG, which is bad.

Also, 3-betting pre-flop inflates the pot enough that you can play for stacks on almost any A/K high board. If you miss, you can always check behind for a free card and still have a shot at stacking the maniac if you spike a A/K.

Also, as previous poster said, fold to UTG 4-bet.

As played, call flop, call turn, call river. I don't like a raise on the flop because you have nothing on a nasty board. Bluff-raising this board is probably -EV. You're basically calling for odds and to see what TAG does.
