Re: 99 on ragged board

So you gets raised on flop, huh? How mean!
Against a maniac, I actually would reraise. The only problem is the third man... well, he has something, some piece of something... like a gutshot or whatever fish think they have something...
So... play the flop aggressively. Reraise: you probably have the best hand against a guy with these stats. He would raise you just for "proud" reasons ("Me is raiser! Me always raises! Me is boss!") or something like that.
The other person is the problem. Against a TAG it is pretty easy: they are on a draw or not.
Against a fish: it is harder...

Who said anything about the caller being a fish? I think that the OP's line is quite reasonable, and he might even consider folding after the action following the flop bet. The maniac is not the problem, but the cold caller certainly is. Unless he is the kind of guy that will call any ace to showdown regardless of the betting action, I would be inclined to place him with a hand that is beating my pair of nines.
