Default Loose player Pushes river. What is my action?

Sorry no hand converter is working for this poker room.

I screwed up this hand when i didnt RePopp preflop. Anyway Villain is very very loose vpip 70 pfr 40 (over 50 hands only), an maniac... He has showed down some good hands though. I was thinking just to call this down which i dont think is too bad line but then he insta pushes all in on river.

My idea was to let him bluff on river but instead I got my self into a tricy situation? Watcha think?

That's a pretty big overbet.

I think this isn't a bluff very often. A lot of aggro players like to overbet push the nuts or near-nuts on the river to represent a bluff.

Villain obviously thinks he's very strong. Now you just have to figure out what he thinks is a very strong hand in this situation. He might be doing this with 2-pair, but mostly it's either a straight or a set.

I think you could argue for a call vs a maniac, but you only have 50 hands, and folding isn't that big of a mistake really. I lay it down.
