Borg 10/20 with Maniac and TAG, AKo OTB

[Dagger78]

Good Borgata 10/20 game most of the table is loose and passive. I've recently gotten a table change to sit to the left of the table maniac. He'd run a $500 buyin up to 2k but, is now down in the 1200 range. He seems to like to bluff, including turn CR semi bluffs and bluffs(against the field, not just heads up), loves raising and reraising preflop, and generally doing other retardo things. While his aggression usually isn't random but certinly overagressive in bad spots. 3 betting preflop OOP with gems such as A2s, and 44, CRing the field with a flush draw on the turn, etc. He certainly hates me. I've reraised him alot so far and have gotten the best of it. I'm up a rack in the 2 hours since I sat down.

To my left is a solid TAG who is a good friend and we dicussed poker strategy and hands alot together. She reads hands well and is certainly aware of the maniac and how I'm dealing with him. I think she is capable of using the maniac's aggression to try to move me out of the pot. She considers me a solid tight aggressive thinking player.

On to the hand.

Folding to the maniac who opens in the CO, I 3 bet A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] on the Button, SB(my friend the TAG) thinks and calls 3, BB folds, maniac calls.

I am clearly shocked by her coldcall of 3 in the SB and I'm sure she knows it. She is NOT calling here without solid hand values. I expect her range to me AJs, AQo, KQs, and maybe 77 and 88 and AJo. I expect her to cap anything better. She is very aware my range here for 3 betting is VERY light.
