Stop Losses and Stop Wins in Maniac Filled LHE

[ne14dirt]

I’m curious about what thoughts are out there on stop losses and stop wins in maniac fill low stakes LHE games. I think that the consensus is to stop when you are tilting, to tired or start playing badly, i.e. have lost an edge and to continue playing regardless of how previous hands have went if you feel you have a decisive edge and will continue to have that edge.

I wonder if this changes when you are up say 60-100bb or down 40-100bb and have been getting your money in good consistently against many opponents. Say 100% of the players see the flop 6 to 8 see the turn and 4 to 5 go to showdown. The kind of players at this table obviously will stay in with any draw and some don’t even know the hand rankings. These players also enjoy raising and re-raising with bottom pair and any one over card.

Is it always correct to stay when one has an edge even facing significant losses that are within the scope of your bankroll? Is it always incorrect to implement any kind of stop loss or stop win in this sort of game?

Please discuss.
