Default 20/180 - Jam Now or Induce a Shove from the Maniac?

Villain: 28/21/3.5 after ~ 100 hands.

My image: I have been playing the HUGE STACK very aggressively and have been played back at somewhat and have generally folded to resistance. I’ve raised and gotten 3-bet and mucked a couple times.

History with Villain: He is playing back at me hard and he 3-bet my UTG raise with Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] and had to show after someone 4-bet AI which he was priced in to call. He was raising my blind a lot and I had not gotten a chance to resteal or play back b/c of my cards or stack sizes. I’ve seen him donk into the PFR and fold to a raise a couple times.

I got a sense that he believed that I didn’t want to play back w/o a hand since he was the second biggest stack for a while up to this point.

My Question: Should I shove the flop or induce a bet/jam on the turn? I ask b/c its very likely he might LAG off with air.
