Re: call on flop to raise on turn w top K pair, Q kicker?

If you are constantly in these situations and don't know what to do, then just punish the maniac on the flop, raise the flop!

This is exactly what I was going to post. I feel that is your read is correct, in that he is super aggro and that you are ahead at this point - then get the money in now. I also feel like some people may say "if he has AQ and you raise the flop - then you chased off his bluff". If it IS AQ, then yeah, perhaps he will lay it down to your raise. But I think he can have 66-QQ/K9-KJ here as well. And those hands, I don't think you are scaring him off of with a raise. So, I think his range of hands that WILL call a raise (and you have beat), are bigger than his range of hands that will fold to your raise. If he caps the flop, then I think you can call down the Turn and River - since you do have some outs against AK and AA (maniacs do get legit hands sometimes). And if he has been seen to cap flops with air, then all the more reason to call down.
