This seems like a clear fold. You don't even have odds to call against a small to medium pair, which he will have often.

yeah you're not ahead of much. see if if he does this a lot, then you can loosen up your range. i'm pretty sure he's drunk/maniac but wait and see.

Were you playing me?

Heh, seriously, at anything below $50 NL, this is my standard play if on one of my first two hands dealt, I'm given AA or KK, I'll take the villian's line.

It's pretty effective--I say I get called about 40-50% of the time. People are just too curious as to what the new maniac is doing...and it's really profitable.

This is a instant and clear fold. I will call with big PP (QQ+) and AK.

I have no clue what the guy has, if he does this more often I'll start loosening up my calling standards against him.
