Default Re: The MANIAC and the TAG

I agree that you should bet the flop, let maniac raise to clear out the field of UI overs or gutshots but I think the advice to move seats and have maniac on the right is very bad. If he's a true maniac you want him on your left. You use him to protect your weak hands by betting and charging the rest of field(e.g. this hand) or you check, let him bet and then check raise the whole field with monsters. Having relative position on maniac is far superior, IMO

I don't think these things override the obvious benefits of having him on your right and letting him act before you almost every hand. BTW, this guy is not a true maniac.
