Vilain is a lose maniac, the 50/25 category.

The turn card, well, is not my favorite card in the deck. The river isn't bad either.

WTH does CO have? What are you beating that either sb or co calls your flop bet? I fold, but I don't like it. If you didn't have a live player behind you, maybe you can call.

Is SB the kind of loose maniac who doesn't bet out when he hits the turn? What could CO have that checked behind on the turn - maybe QJ no heart?

Regardless, every conceivable draw and some loose maniac 2 pair hands made it. You have good position on the maniac to take his chips in a better spot.

Fold and hope CO calls so you see what one or both had.

I think you did a good job of losing the minimum with this hand. SBs check/call on the flop, checking the turn with two to act behind, adn then leading the river really looks like a hand that you are behind to. I cant see your hand having any showdown value with hte way things transpired. At least we have 1030 left [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Normally, I bet t100 preflop, but with this maniac, I like the t120 better [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I like the way you played it. I lean toward a fold on the river with CO still to act
